Hello,
I'm using commons-attributes with Spring on a Java 1.4 application.
I've included commons-attributes-api 2.2 (from maven repo)
I get this Tomcat exception on startup :
LifecycleException: Missing optional package Extension[ant,
implementationURL= http://www.ibiblio.org/maven/ant/jars/ant-1.5.jar,
implementationVersion=1.5]
The commons-attributes MANIFEST contains those lines :
Extension-List: ant qdox
ant-Extension-Name: ant
ant-Implementation-Version: 1.5
ant-Implementation-URL: http://www.ibiblio.org/maven/ant/jars/ant-1.5.jar
qdox-Extension-Name: qdox
qdox-Implementation-Version: 1.5
qdox-Implementation-URL:
http://www.ibiblio.org/maven/qdox/jars/qdox-1.5.jar
I don't know what this "Extension-List" is and why is it required by
commons-attributes. AFAIK, the API doesn't require those libs anyway (only
the compiler do).
Is this a bug, and what would be a woraround ?
I've added ant and qodx in my WEB-INF/lib with no result.
Nico.
