Subject: [dom4j-user] JDK 1.3
Dependency?
Hi All,
(I'm having a heck of a time
getting this message accepted by the
listserver, so I apologize in advance
if more than one copy is sent out.)
I'm a dom4j newbie and have been
pulling my hair out trying to get dom4j
working with JTidy. The
JTidyDemo works just fine, but when I copied the
two lines of code I needed
into my code, and ran the resultant module under
Tomcat (3.2.2), I got the
strangest error behavior. It was as if there was
an invisible
exception that I couldn't catch directly.
I went to the list's archives
and stumbled across a message of July 12, 1999
from Minal Ashar, apparently
having a similar problem. A response dated
October 15, 2001 (???)
stated there was a JDK 1.3 dependency but that it had
been
fixed.
Well, it turns out that Tomcat was using JDK 1.2.2, so I
switched to 1.3.1
and it worked fine! I'm using (I think - I just
downloaded it several days
ago) the latest dom4j (patched-1.3) and JTidy
(04Aug2000r7).
Does this mean I always *must* use JDK 1.3+ with
dom4j? If so, is there an
earlier release without this
dependency?
Regards,
Terry
