+1 for Java 5.
Dennis, what works with java 1.4 will work (faster) with java 5 as
well. The old code doesn't need to be touched. If we just keep
waiting we will update to Java 5 when Java 7 is out!

From my experiences working with companies moving to Axis2 I'd say
about half are still using JDK 1.4. If they can't count on that
support being maintained I think they're likely to reconsider
adopting Axis2. Just having an archived 1.3 version of Axis2 won't
be enough to convince them, unless they're already committed to
moving to JDK 1.5 anyway.
It seems like bad timing to give up one of the major advantages of
Axis2 over the Glassfish code and such. So -0 from me.

Hi all ,
As you might remember few months back Glen asked the list about
moving to JDK 1.5 and I think we got very positive feedback. So I
thought of asking again and change the code to work with JDK 1.5 .
The main reason behind sending this mail is due the dependency we
have for annogen. As I can see that project is dead one and there
is no development happening so I do not think it is a good idea to
depend on such a project. In the meantime we have few issues with
annogen as well ,first inner class problem (I have locally fixed
that both in Axis2 and Annogen will commit soon) , second is the
final class problem. I request a release from annogen after the
changes that Dims did , but we did not get any reply so far.
We all know that we get better annotation support from JDK 1.5 so
if we move to JDK 1.5 we can get rid of the annogen dependency and
we can just use JDK for annotation processing. Other problem is
generic support , if we move to JDK 1.5 we can have generic
support in our POJOs. In addition to POJO we can get better
concurrent support in JDK 1.5 as well.
So if we move to JDK 1.5 we can get better support , and I do not
think any advantage of staying in 1.4 . If some user want to use
Axis2 in JDK 1.4 they can happily use Axis2 1.3 , which is very
stable version and working fine in 1.4 and 1.5.
If any user or developers have any concern on moving to JDK 1.5
please come forward and reply to this mail that will be very
helpful for all of us.
Here is my +1 for moving to JDK 1.5 to and release Axis2 1.4 in
JDK 1.5
Thank you,
Deepal
