> Key: ACCUMULO-905
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-905
> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Christopher Tubbs
> Assignee: Christopher Tubbs
> Labels: java, jdk1.7
> Fix For: 1.7.0
>
> Attachments: ACCUMULO-905-1.patch
>
> Original Estimate: 5m
> Time Spent: 0.05h
> Remaining Estimate: 2m
>
> As 1.7 becomes the default Java in more and more operating systems, and
> security-related bugfixes and other fixes in Java itself are targeted more
> towards newer versions, rather than maintaining older versions, it would be
> prudent to switch to using 1.7 as our target platform.
> This change would allow us to leverage some of the newer features of Java.
> This change can be established at the beginning of the development cycle for
> Accumulo 1.6.0, so that we can immediately begin taking advantage of the new
> Java features in 1.6.0 features after 1.5.0 is released.
