Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-7910:
---------------------------------------
The 0.96 build is complaining:
{noformat}
[ERROR] COMPILATION ERROR :
[ERROR]
/home/jenkins/jenkins-slave/workspace/hbase-0.96/hbase-common/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/security/User.java:[253,28]
error: cannot find symbol
{noformat}
Looks like a patch misapplication, because the build passed locally for me.
Committing an addendum.
> 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.
