Sean Busbey commented on HBASE-19203: ------------------------------------- I don't think changing the default bundled version of Hadoop in a maintenance release is a good idea. Folks who want the newer Hadoop client should be able to safely us a HBase 1.4 client with a HBase 1.2 cluster. > Update Hadoop version used for build to 2.7.4 > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-19203 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-19203 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Andrew Purtell > Assignee: Andrew Purtell > Fix For: 2.0.0, 3.0.0, 1.4.0 > > Attachments: HBASE-19203-branch-1.patch, HBASE-19203-branch-1.patch, > HBASE-19203.patch > > > See parent. > 2.5 is really old. > Based on discussions I've seen on the Hadoop *-dev@ lists, Hadoop is thinking > about maintaining 2.8 and up, not 2.7. Using 2.7 for convenience binary > builds is fine. We should probably update it to 2.8.2, but that's not > strictly necessary so I'll opt for the oldest. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
