Hi, Projects that use Maven get this for free in the dependency report (and people can just look at the POM). Projects that use Ant might simply direct their users to look in the relevant build script or file (e.g. build.properties). I'm hesitant to have a separate web page just to list dependencies unless that page is auto-generated (as is the case with maven), because that's two places to keep in sync when developing, and I can easily see how we'd forget to update the web page...

Hi All, I and other Jakarta committers received an email today from a developer at Wachovia pointing out how difficult it is to discover library and JDK dependencies for Jakarta subprojects as a whole, even though his main focus was Commons. I couldn't really dispute his observation upon trying to find dependency information for a couple of software releases. Would it be useful to start a Wiki page containing a table where after each software release, we list the library and JDK dependencies/compatibility for the release? Or would it be better to simply agree on a common place in each subproject's Web page hierarchy to list that information? Interest for easy access to this information appears to be coming from corporate developers using older JDK versions who are having a hard time figuring out what's compatible with what. daniel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
