-----------------------------------
Summary: Enforce JDK7 javac for builds on branch-1 and master
Key: HBASE-11666
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-11666
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Task
Components: build, documentation
Affects Versions: 1.0.0, 2.0.0
Reporter: Sean Busbey
Assignee: Sean Busbey
Per [the discussion on JDK versions|http://search-hadoop.com/m/DHED4Zlz0R1], we
require Java 7 for 1.0+ (also we have code that only compiles under Java 7).
Right now, if you attempt to build with JDK6, Maven will happily oblige and
then give you a cannot find symbol error about a Java 7 class we use.
We should
* update the Build HBase guide to reference our supported Java versions docs
* update our pom so that Maven will correctly complain about jdk versions.
