Sean Busbey commented on HBASE-12894:
-------------------------------------
the master branch (what will be HBase 2.0) is already jdk 8 only. So let's just
remove jetty 6 entirely from that branch and move to jetty 9 throughout.
> Upgrade Jetty to 9.2.6

> Key: HBASE-12894
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12894
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: REST
> Affects Versions: 0.98.0
> Reporter: Rick Hallihan
> Assignee: Ted Yu
> Labels: MicrosoftSupport
> Fix For: 2.0.0
>
>
> The Jetty component that is used for the HBase Stargate REST endpoint is
> version 6.1.26 and is fairly outdated. We recently had a customer inquire
> about enabling cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) for the REST endpoint and
> found that this older version does not include the necessary filter or
> configuration options, highlighted at:
> http://wiki.eclipse.org/Jetty/Feature/Cross_Origin_Filter
> The Jetty project has had significant updates through versions 7, 8 and 9,
> including a transition to be an Eclipse subproject, so updating to the latest
> version may be non-trivial. The last update to the Jetty component in
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3377 was a minor version update
> and did not require significant work. This update will include a package
> namespace update so there will likely be a larger number of required changes.
