Thank you for letting us know. What are the implications for folks running Java 1.3.x, 1.4.x or even 1.5 who can't upgrade to Mustang (Java 1.6)?


They'll catch up. And until then, there are a number of implementations of stream parsing, including the reference implementation (RI) which started life with BEA, Woodstox, as well as the Sun implementation. Drop one of the other jars in, change the package name, and you should be in business.

I understand folks will catch up. But if the rest of FOP runs on 1.3.x or better (and this is one portion of FOP requires 1.6, then FOP 1.0--when it's released--would require JRE 1.6. I don't think this is an acceptable solution--not when FOP has what I believe to be an adequate hyphenation implementation which does not require Java 1.6.

Does your HyphenationTree system have hooks, thereby making it merely an option for those who run on Java 1.6, as opposed to requiring FOP itself change its system requirements to JRE 1.6?


Clay,

I wasn't expecting that the HyphenationTree would find its way into FOP, not least because of the stream parsing requirement. It was strictly an FYI post for anyone who is interested in hyphenation issues.
