I think this has been briefly discussed in the past, but what is the consensus on using parts of JDK API only available in releases later than 1.1.x? I'm specifically thinking of Collections, which was introduced for 1.2.x (although was available as separate package for 1.1.x I believe). I'm not sure if there already are other dependencies to 1.2.x, if so, what are those?
In general I think it is good idea to try to avoid having dependencies to newest releases, at least on core Lucene classes... but in case of Collections I'd really like to be able to use those classes. What do others think? Alternatively if 1.1.x compatibility really is a high priority, it's oftentimes possible to write wrappers and store them (say, Hits wrapper) in different optional package. What do others think? -+ Tatu +- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
