>                 Key: HIVE-1993
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1993
>             Project: Hive
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>    Affects Versions: 0.6.0, 0.8.0
>            Reporter: Joep Rottinghuis
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Hadoop major version must be delimited by dot on either side and not any other character.
> Applicable to trunk as well as 0.6 + HIVE-1264.
> For example what does NOT work in Hive's build.properties:
> {code}
> hadoop.version=0.20-security-something
> {code}
> Instead use a dot:
> The following jarname for hadoop (see entry in build.properties)
> {code}
> hadoop.version=0.20.security-something
> {code}
> Not really sure how much apetite there is to change this; Just filing Jira to warn other users.
> See lines 97-110 in hive/shims/src/common/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/shims/ShimLoader.java:
> {code}
>  /**
>    * Return the major version of Hadoop currently on the classpath.
>    * This is simply the first two components of the version number
>    * (e.g "0.18" or "0.20")
>    */
>   public static String getMajorVersion() {

>           " (expected A.B.* format)");
