Java version for Accumulo 1.6?

["Slater, David M." <Da...@jhuapl.edu>]

I did some googling and I saw an email thread related to whether Accumulo 1.6 would use Java 1.7 as a dependency, with some voting involved, but I didn't see a resolution. If it doesn't use 1.7, are there any incompatability issues with running Accumulo 1.6 (compiled on Java 1.6) on a Java 1.7 system? Can this be safely used for client code? I saw Sun's list of potential incompatabilities, but I don't know how that effects Accumulo.

Thanks,
David

I have run our entire test suite with java 7 on previous version with no
problems.  I switch between java 7 and 6 in my development environment all
the time.
