John Vines commented on ACCUMULO-804:
-------------------------------------
Hadoop isn't a compiled dependency. Couldn't we keep the default with 1 for
compilation time, but have a testing procedure of some sort which exercises
both?
> Hadoop 2.0 Support
> ------------------
>
> Key: ACCUMULO-804
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-804
> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: client
> Affects Versions: 1.5.0, 1.4.3
> Reporter: Ed Kohlwey
> Assignee: Billie Rinaldi
> Labels: hackathon
>
> We should start thinking about Hadoop 2 support now that it is Cloudera's
> recommended distribution and many new Hadoop users will probably be adopting
> it.
> When I investigated this first a few months ago it seemed like the biggest
> barrier to this was that all the Map/Reduce related tests are implemented
> using pseudo-private constructors from Hadoop 1.0 that are no-longer present
> in Hadoop 2.0.
> The main strategy to fix this should probably be to adopt the Map/Reduce
> cluster test object for testing the various Accumulo input formats instead of
> instrumenting them directly. I have used this convenience object successfully
> on tests utilizing MockInstance, so I think it should work fine.
> There may also be some filesystem API issues but I don't think they will be
> too severe.
> The other main issue is that we will need to actually deploy on Hadoop 1 and
> 2 and run the integration tests once we start supporting both, so that will
> be a headache for release testing that we should think through.
