[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-11102) Document JDK versions supported by each release

["Andrew Purtell (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-11102?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13986165#comment-13986165 ] 

Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-11102:
----------------------------------------

bq. There has been some work to support JDK8. We can also document that.

Running on a Java 8 runtime "just works" with 0.98 today, but I can't say that I know of any scale testing so consider that.

Building with JDK8 would require the removal of a deprecated method that causes a compile time error with this version, a trivial change:

> We can make use of a JDK version x HBase version matrix to explain which JDK version is supported and required. 
> 0.94, 0.96, and 0.98 releases all support JDK6 and JDK7. For 1.0, there is a discussion thread to decide whether to drop JDK6 support. 
> There has been some work to support JDK8. We can also document that.
