 I used ant for the previous releases (target package). Minimum jdk is 1.2

Has anybody actually been checking this? Setting those properties has probably
influence on the compiler (e.g. complain about newer language constructs
(asserts, etc.) and the generated bytecode), but not on the available API I
think. Despite bytecode compatibility you might end with ClassNotFoundExceptions
and NoSuchMethodExceptions when using JDK 1.3+ API.

I just tried compiling using JDK 1.3

1) The maven build doesn't work because geronimo has been built using
JDK 1.4(compile fails complaining class file has the wrong version
48.0, should be 47.0 for one of the javax.transaction classes)

2) I got the ant build to work by doing the following:

- plug in alternative j2ee and servlet jars (rather than geronimo)
- change the order of the classpath in build.xml to pick up the
alternative jars before whats in the lib directory (i.e. geronimo)
- add an exclude for the Jdk14Logger class
- modify FileResourceManager - it uses a JDK 1.4 constructor of FileOutputStream

So it seem that for JDK 1.3 the only real issue is in FileResourceManager.

Another thing I noticed - the build.xml sets the compile target to
1.3 - so maybe I should switch back the equivalent maven settings (I
added them as 1.3 and then switched to 1.2 yesterday, following
Oliver's comment).

I've changed the build.xml to resolve the JDK 1.3 issues there - but
have left the FileResourceManager issue for someone else to deal with.

It was me who introduced it :) Fixed it ...

You could commit this as well as easy as it was :)

Yes, I would like to see a 1.2 release as well. There are enough fixes and
enhancements that qualify for a new release.

What's the actual release process (code freeze, etc.)?

RELEASE-NOTES.txt talks about 1.1.1 while we now will probably name it 1.2 btw.

Feature freeze for 1.2 is exactly now ;)

More info can be found here:

http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/releases/release.html
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/releases/prepare.html

I'd go for a release candidate right now, skipping betas. Opinions?

Oh, right. Will fix this.

I don't have an itch/need for transaction either but am also happy to
help with build/site issues that normally get raised with release
candidates, if you want.


Nice. I will certainly came back to you with questions ;)


Is maven the primary build mechanism (i.e. the one you use for
release)?  Also what is the minimum JDK version for transaction?


I used ant for the previous releases (target package). Minimum jdk is 1.2

OK, I updated the maven build earlier which even if you still use ant,
is good to have - I set maven.compile.target and maven
compile.source in project.properties to JDK 1.3, so you may want to
correct those (or I can)

The current transaction site is using the old way of building sites. 
Do you mind if I change it to the new way?
