Christopher Tubbs commented on ACCUMULO-2934:
---------------------------------------------
One strange thing that I noticed was that I had to add java-continuation as a
runtime dependency to resolve a ClassNotFoundException. That package is
available for Jetty 9, but I have not seen the same issue in Jetty 9. I'm not
sure why that's different, but it's something to be on the lookout for, in case
the issue appears in Jetty 9 (it's a pretty easy fix if it does). I also
noticed that jetty-http was needed at the compile scope for Jetty 8 (I think
it's because we were using some HttpBuffer subclass). In Jetty 9, a runtime
dependency is sufficient.
> Use Jetty 8 for 1.6.x

> Key: ACCUMULO-2934
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-2934
> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: monitor
> Reporter: Christopher Tubbs
> Assignee: Christopher Tubbs
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 1.6.1
>
> Time Spent: 0.5h
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> ACCUMULO-2808 inadvertently bumped the minimum supported JRE to 7. This
> breaks expectations that come with 1.6.x to support JRE 6.
> If we back off to Jetty 8, we should be able to continue to support JRE 6 for
> the 1.6.x versions of Accumulo, and move to an org.eclipse.jetty version that
> is still supported.
> Jetty 9 can continue to be used for versions after 1.6.x, which require JRE 7
> already.
