@Leemoonsoo @felixcheung Could you help review it ? Thanks

LGTM

[felixcheung]

this works? spark had problems upgrading to newer than 2.11.8

[felixcheung]

specifically in SPARK-24418 - there code changes needed but not release yet (Spark 2.4.0?)

[zjffdu]

I tested it against spark master branch, and it works. What kind of problems does spark have on 2.11.12 ? I notice SPARK-24418 is already merged.

[felixcheung]

something in SparkILoop. given that I don't think we can/should upgrade scala broadly - it might only work for Spark 2.4.0 (unreleased) but not older/current releases

[zjffdu]

Thanks @felixcheung , I will revert the change in the root pom file and only update scala version in spark module.

[felixcheung]

? it looks like spark.version is 2.2.0. Or under profile, 2.3.0
as far as I know SPARK-24418 is fixed only in (unreleased) master branch

[zjffdu]

It is to fine to compile with spark 2.2, the main change is on SparkScala211Interpreter.scala which is due to scala repl api changes in scala 2.11.12.

[felixcheung]

Perhaps you could elaborate on why we should do this now since Spark doesn’t actually support it? Is there a reason that I have missed?

[zjffdu]

This is for the next release of zeppelin which I suppose should supported the latest spark 2.4.0 which would use scala 2.11.12. Just want to catch up with spark.

[felixcheung]

well, ok. though might be hard to tell - we are juggling multiple releases 2.1.3, 2.2.2, 2.3.2 - might take some time to get to 2.4.0.

[zjffdu]

Anyway, this PR is just for the next release of spark that supports scala 2.11.12, I can hold it if you have any concern

[dongjoon-hyun]

Hi, @zjffdu , @felixcheung , @Leemoonsoo .

Since Spark 2.1.3/2.2.2/2.3.2 is out and Spark 2.4.0 RC3 is started, can we restart this?

[HyukjinKwon]

Hey @zjffdu, busy? I can take this over - looks there's only minor conflict.

[zjffdu]

Thanks @HyukjinKwon feel free to take over this
