Thejas M Nair commented on HADOOP-14067:
----------------------------------------
There are already people who have created workarounds for this by copying the
VersionInfo class -
https://github.com/timveil/hive-jdbc-uber-jar#note-about-kerberos-and-the-workaround.
That obviously is not a maintainable solution for this problem.
We are seeing this with Hive's jdbc jar when used with tools such as SQuirreL
SQL or dbVisualizer
> VersionInfo should load version-info.properties from its own classloader

> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: common
> Reporter: Thejas M Nair
>
> org.apache.hadoop.util.VersionInfo loads the version-info.properties file via
> the current thread classloader.
> However, in case of applications that are using hadoop classes dynamically
> (eg jdbc based tools such as SQuirreL SQL) the current thread might not be
> the one that loaded the hadoop classes including VersionInfo, and it would
> fail to fine the properties file.
> The right place to look for the properties file is in the classloader of
> VersionInfo class, as right version is the one that is associated with rest
> of the loaded hadoop classes, and not necessarily the one in current thread
> classloader.
> Created a related jira - HADOOP-14066 to make methods to get version via
> VersionInfo a public api.
