[jira] [Commented] (WHIRR-454) Allow openjdk to be installed as an alternative to sun-java-6

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIRR-454?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13212954#comment-13212954 ] 

Antonio Piccolboni commented on WHIRR-454:
------------------------------------------

I must be missing something, but read this: "OpenJDK cannot be used to compile hadoop mapreduce code in branch-0.23 and beyond, please use other JDKs." (from http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HadoopJavaVersions). Does that mean that as soon as we make the switch to next gen there's no more workaround?
