Body:
Personally, I am really looking forward to jdk 1.5 features to take root,
particularly things like generics, importing constants, etc.
I wonder how compelling that will be to those stuck on earlier version of the
runtime/jdk?
Is it feasible (performance and developer-effort) to have runtime
checks/wrappers around features like regular expressions? Oh wait...that's
where hivemind comes in! With the right packing of features into services, a
conditional interceptor could provide the ORO linkage. A good abstraction (like
commons-logging deals with log4j vs Java 1.4 logging) also helps.

Key: HIVEMIND-5
Summary: Hivemind support for legacy JDK versions.
Type: New Feature
Status: Unassigned
Priority: Major
Project: HiveMind
Components:
framework
Versions:
1.0

Description:
Could you add this as a feature request? It will help me from forgetting about
it. Perhaps for 1.0 we'll maintain JDK 1.3 compatibility (by required Jakarta
ORO) and in HiveMind 1.1. we can phase out 1.3 support?

Subject: RE: JDK Requirements for Hivemind
Thanks for the FYI, Howard.
As one who influences Java technology decisions within M I can safely say that
there is momentum around using Hivemind. We currently have a need to support
dual target platforms of JDK1.3 and JDK1.4 (n and n-1 versions of an
application server).
Any thoughts on paralleling the JDK version support of other Jakarta projects -
say Ant or Struts or other?
I hope this enough of a formal feature request. I appreciate the attention you
are providing this.
Cheers.

Right now it does not use any JDK 1.4 or above APIs. It might even run on JDK
1.2.
However, there are some JDK 1.4 APIs I'd like to start taking advantage of, so
speak up!

Hivemind Users,
What are the JDK requirements for Hivemind at runtime? Can it be run on JDK 1.3?
Thanks!
