Does anybody know if there is a jdk6 available for Mac? I checked the apple developer site, and there doesn't seem to be one available, despite blogs from last year claiming apple was distributing it.
Since I do my development work on a Mac, switching to jdk6 would be very difficult for me if I can't find a darwin jdk6. I need to be able to build job jars and patch hadoop. -Michael On 10/12/07 10:12 AM, "Doug Cutting" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Owen O'Malley wrote: > That is a mistake of some sort.

Yes, it seems I built the 0.14.2 release using 1.6 by accident. Sorry! If this is a blocker for folks, please file an issue in Jira and I will make a 0.14.3 tarball that's compiled with Java 1.5 instead. > I believe the QA framework runs > the unit tests under 1.5 to ensure that we don't break 1.5 compatibility > accidently. Yes, that is the case.
