Hello, I'm working on extending JDOM's build.xml to add support for building a JDK1.1 version of JDOM.
This is easy in principle as long as JDOM code uses explicit imports and avoids a couple a Java2 specifics. Running a sed script over the source files, to substitute the 29 collections package names, does the trick. http://java.sun.com/beans/infobus/collectionsreadme.html JDOM is using Ant, so I'm intending to make an Ant task for this, but I wanted to check with this list first to see if it's already been done, and, if not, to solicit suggestions. Although a JDK1.1-specific task would suffice, I'm considering making a general directory-enabled task that accepts an ORO expression argument and applies it to the files in the directory. Would this general task be a candidate for inclusion in the Ant core? -- Joe Bowbeer
