1. JDK 1.1 compatibility is still required for some PDA and similar platforms.
2. The new Map classes were not written for JDK 1.1 compatility but primarily to implement the memory object pool and Java primitive maps. The new classes use far less memory than java.util.* classes and create very few objects. This makes them usable especially for heavily updated maps and sets with low memory footprint.

I think I saw a comment to that effect somewhere in the source ... Harald ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by OSTG.
