Update information on JDK 1.3 jta jar
-------------------------------------
Key: JDO-360
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-360
Project: JDO
Type: Task
Components: tck20, site and infrastructure
Reporter: Craig Russell
Priority: Trivial
The jdo project is running an old version of the jta jar:
<dependency>
<groupId>geronimo-spec</groupId>
<artifactId>geronimo-spec-jta</artifactId>
<version>1.0.1B-rc2</version>
</dependency>
The new version is
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.geronimo.specs</groupId>
<artifactId>geronimo-jta_1.0.1B_spec</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
</dependency>
The reason we use this jar instead of the Sun distribution is to allow maven
directly to load the jar, which is impossible under the Sun license. There is
no harm in changing to the new jar, so we should probably do this in the trunk.
I found we are using this old version issue while trying to figure out if the
new jar supports JDK 1.3. But the new jar doesn't either. See below.
We document in http://wiki.apache.org/jdo/J2SESupport
that we don't support 1.3 and give instructions on how to download the 1.3
version from the Sun web site. It might be an idea to update this page with
instructions on how to tell maven to use this jar instead of the geronimo jar,
but I think there are already clues about what to do.
Proposed action:
1. Update project.xml in trunk to refer to the new geronimo jar.
2. Update wiki with latest information on how to use the Sun 1.3 distribution.
