I understand that I need to use Java 1.4 for building the full J2EE Geronimo. Due to some Corba incompatibilities with 1.5 or so. If I just build the minimal profile, can I then do everything with 1.5?
The CORBA problems come up as part of the OpenEJB build. If you only check out Geronimo, not OpenEJB, it should download an OpenEJB binary and I think build fully under 1.5 (including the full J2EE assemblies). However, there's not normally a reason to build under 1.5, since you can just build under 1.4 and then run it under 1.5. (Also, depending on how recent the OpenEJB binary is, it may not work to just have it download as part of the build.)
The reason that I'm doing this is that I want to understand for example how the jetty-deployer module works. When I search in the svn checkout then I only find a deployment plan for this module. Not the actual source. And from what I see now during a 'maven new' it looks like it just gets binaries for those modules.
The deployment plans are under configs (e.g. configs/jetty-deployer). The modules are under modules (e.g. modules/jetty-builder). Thanks, Aaron
