Hi, I am fairly new to Java. Ant is a black box/hole... I would like to use
POI HSSF to process speadsheets using Java on a Lotus Domno R5 server (JVM
1.1.8). At present I use Jacob (Java-COM Bridge http://danadler.com/jacob/
). It works but I am concerned about possible memory leaks and performance
when handling a queue of 100's of speadsheets. I couldn't find a Java 1.1
binary so I d/led the source and tried to build my own (hoping POI doesn't
use Java 2 specific classes).
If I execute the build batch file under Win 98 I get
".;C:\JDK\lib\classes.zip;C:\JDK\CLASSES;C:\JACOB;.
\lib\endorsed\XALAN-~1.JAR;.\lib\endorsed\XERCES~1.JAR;.
\lib\endorsed\XML-APIS.JAR"
Error loading class org/apache/tools/ant/Main: Bad major version number
I think the "Bad major"is because the jar files Poi\lib are compiled with
Java 2. Domino ships with a version of Xerces & Xalan (LotusXSL) which I
have copied to \Poi and <JDK>\classes even renaming Xerces & Xalan to
X...2.0.0.jar . If I try running Ant from the Poi directory I get
BUILD FAILED

org/xml/sax/SAXParseException
The SAXParseException class is listed in the API docs so I don't understand
why it barfs with that error.
Can someone point me to a resource/FAQ where I can learn how to work this
out for myself in future?
I guess I might need to recompile the other .jars in \Poi\lib too. Isn't
there an archive of these things somewhere?
TIA.
