Scott Carey commented on MAPREDUCE-1700:
----------------------------------------
If we are lucky, projecct jigsaw will be pulled back into Java 8. According
to: http://mreinhold.org/blog/late-for-the-train-qa it has not yet been decided.
If it is brought back in, then perhaps we can wait until Java has a module
system 1 to 1.5 years from now. If not, I do not think Hadoop can wait until
Java 9, sometime 2015 to 2016 ish.

> If user code has a dependency on a version of a JAR that is different to the
> one that happens to be used by Hadoop, then it may not work correctly. This
> happened with user code using a different version of Avro, as reported
> [here|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-493?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12852081#action_12852081].
> The problem is analogous to the one that application servers have with WAR
> loading. Using a specialized classloader in the Child JVM is probably the way
> to solve this.
