Andrew McIntyre commented on DERBY-1079:
----------------------------------------

-    <antcall target="public-jdbc4-api"/>
+    <antcall target="public-jdbc4-api" if="jdk16"/>

Please don't break the top-level publishedapi target for JVMs < 1.6.

Instead of a publishedapi_index.html how about we create a top-level index.html 
for the bin distribution that also has pointers to the manuals? I can take care 
of the doc section of the file if you like.

> We would like to build the javadoc under 1.6 so that all of the classes 
> (including the JDBC 3 and JDBC 4 support) end up in the same directory tree. 
> This is particularly important for the published API which we expose to 
> end-users.
> Right now you can do the following:
> 1) Build the whole codeline using the 1.4 compiler for most classes and the 
> 1.6 compiler for the JDBC4 support.
> 2) Build javadoc in a 1.4 environment (with JAVA_HOME set to 1.4). This runs 
> step (1) if it has not already happened. This javadoc excludes the JDBC4 
> support because generics-laden JDBC4 signatures choke the 1.4 compiler.
> 3) Build the javadoc in a 1.6 environment (with JAVA_HOME set to 1.6). This 
> will fail if you have not run step (1); this is because you can't build Derby 
> in a 1.6 environment yet. This also generates a number of warnings because 
> the 1.6 javadoc tool objects to code generated by the JAVACC grammar tool; 
> JAVACC turns out code with loop variables distastefully named "enum". In 
> addition, today, the 1.6 javadoc excludes the JDBC4 support.
> We would like to end up with the following situation:
> a) If your ant.properties points at a 1.6 installation, then the javadoc 
> targets will use the 1.6 javadoc tool and will include Derby's JDBC4 support. 
> This will work regardless of whether you have already built the class tree. 
> If you have not already built the class tree, then we will compile it under 
> scenario (1) above.
> b) If, however, your ant.properties does not point at a 1.6 installation, 
> then the javadocs target will continue to use the 1.4 javadoc tool to build 
> only the classes built today. The JDBC4 support will be excluded from this 
> javadoc.
> c) As part of releasing 10.2, we will build the javadoc under scenario (a).
> d) Once 1.6 exits beta and becomes a production vm, the community can debate 
> when we want to fix DERBY-1078 and require 1.6 in the build environment.
