Sean Busbey commented on HBASE-12963: ------------------------------------- updated the scope (and moved this to a top level docs issue). It's definitely fixed for jdk8, but we should still document (either in the "building hbase" section or as a note on supported JDKs) the {{-Pjavac}} maven profile added by HBASE-12695 on how to build with a newer JDK that isn't supported by all of our bytecode level tooling. (presuming those mechanisms still work). Not a blocker for 2.0, I'd say, but definitely a project hygiene issue. > Add note about using newer JDKs for compilation to the guide > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HBASE-12963 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12963 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Task > Components: documentation > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Reporter: Sean Busbey > Assignee: Sean Busbey > Priority: Minor > Labels: beginner > > HBASE-12695 fixed building 2.0.0-SNAP with JDK8, but right now it's only > documented in a release note.
