Andrew Purtell updated HBASE-7910:
----------------------------------
Attachment: HBASE-7910-0.94.patch
In http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#basic.prerequisites, the 0.94 entries for
Hadoop < 1.0.3 are 'X' in the supported Hadoop version matrix. We can remove
reflection for secure 0.94 as well. Attached a patch for 0.94 that is the 0.98
version of User.java after Mike's changes are applied. Compilation using both
Hadoop 1 and 2 profiles succeeds. Security unit tests pass locally. Sources in
security/ are unconditionally included in 0.94 builds these days, we'd have
compilation issues for ancient Hadoop versions there anyway. Ping [~lhofhansl]
Ping [~stack] for 0.96, change could go in there too.
Will commit to 0.94+ if I get an ack for that version. 0.98+ otherwise.
> Dont use reflection for security

> security.User class uses reflection so that HBase can work with older
> Hadoop's not having security. Now that we require 1.x, or 0.23 or 2.x, all
> Hadoop versions have security code. We can get rid of most of the User class.
