FYI, I'm currently working on a generalized build script for UNIX which
will automatically invoke the code-switcher script. So, for UNIX users
without Ant, it'll take just one command like
buildjar.sh 1.4
to rebuild everying and make hsqldb.jar. I will also build in some
dependency smarts so that, like ant or make, it will only recompile what
is needed.

The short answer is it is not possible due to the changes in JDBC interfaces
in different versions of Java. Developers always ask this, but we would
either have to maintain two versions of some files and use conditional
compilation, or have one file containing two versions. We use the second
option which poses fewer synchronisation problems.
The code in CVS is ready to compile with 1.3. It needs the conversion to
compile for 1.1 or 1.4 JDK's.

The reason I'm asking is that I can see a lot of benefit in having a single
codebase that compiles on all platforms without needing the switch scripts.

Subject: [mail] Re: [Hsqldb-developers] hsqldb-dev JDK 1.4 patch
Thanks,
The code compiles under JDK 1.4. To enable this, however, you need to
compile it first with Ant (only once) with your JAVA_HOME system variable
pointing to the JDK1.4 installation. This will modify the sources and
remove
comments from the JDBC3 methods that are already there. You can also run
switchToJDK14.bat or switchToJDK14.sh once to achieve the same result.

I've created a patch against the hsqldb-dev branch of CVS which allows the
code to compile under JDK 1.4, I'm not sure if it's any use, but I thought
I'd post it just in case.
Most of the methods throw a SQLException stating "Method not implemented",
I'll work on these slowly, but I initially wanted to get a patch in so the
work could beintegrated piece by piece.
Regards,
Al.
