Sean Busbey commented on HIVE-16049:
------------------------------------
Jetty 9.3 (the one used in this patch, also used in Hadoop and HBase) requires
Java 1.8. [Looking at the Jetty docs on version
reqs|http://www.eclipse.org/jetty/documentation/current/what-jetty-version.html],
I could switch to Jetty 9.2 and it ought to work for Java 1.7, though I don't
know yet how compatible it is being colocated with 9.3.
Is there a branch I could target that is Java 1.8+ only? If not, can anyone
point me to prior dev@ discussion(s) about java version reqs so I can check
background before making a case to add a Java 1.8+ only branch?
> upgrade to jetty 9

> Jetty 7 has been deprecated for a couple of years now. Hadoop and HBase have
> both updated to Jetty 9 for their next major releases, which will complicate
> classpath concerns.
> Proactively update to Jetty 9 in the few places we use a web server.
