Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-13344:
----------------------------------------
Strictly speaking, it's a liability for all active release branches, since 1.7
is EOL now too, there will be no more free public updates to any JDK 1.7.
> Add enforcer rule that matches our JDK support statement

> The [ref guide gives a list of JDKs that we expect our hbase versions to work
> with at runtime|http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#basic.prerequisites].
> Let's add in the extra-enforcer-rules mojo and start using [the bytecode
> version
> rule|http://mojo.codehaus.org/extra-enforcer-rules/enforceBytecodeVersion.html]
> to make sure that the result of our builds on a given branch won't fail out
> because of a misconfigured target jdk version (or a dependency that targets a
> later jdk).
