Dain,
Couldn't we just stick the geronimo annotations jar into the tomcat/
endorsed folder
instead of having to remove Tomcat's annotations-api.jar?
My plan is to fix Tomcat's annotations and submit a patch. While the
work on getting the patch applied, we'll simply overwrite their
unpatched jar with a version we distribute.
So to support Tomcat 5.5, we'll need to backport the Tomcat 6
annotations processor
correct? Would that be a lot of work?
I don't think we should do that. If someone is using Tomcat 5.5,
then they don't get annotation support since Tomcat 5.5 doesn't
support annotations. They can always use standard ref declarations
in the web.xml.
