Hi,
I have to tweak a few classes and for this I needed few packages which
are
only present in Java 7 like java.nio.file , So I was wondering If I can
shift my
development environment of Hadoop to Java 7? Would this break anything ?
Thanks

openjdk 7 works, but nio async file access is slower then
Oracle is dropping java 6 support by the end of the year. So there is
likely to be a big shift to java 7 before then. Currently Hadoop
officially supports java 6 so unless there is an official change of
position you cannot use Java 7 specific APIs if you want to check your
code into Hadoop.
That was really helpful.
@Robert: No I am just working on a research project, I am not checking the
code into Hadoop.
Thanks Radim and Robert.
