Hi,
Is version 1.2 still going to be compatible with jre 1.3. I tried to compile HEAD from CVS (30-sep-2004) with a sdk 1.3 compiler and got these messages:
[javac] D: \workspace\xml_sec_cvs\src\org\apache\xml\security\c14n\implementations \CanonicalizerBase.java:82: cannot resolve symbol
[javac] symbol : constructor RuntimeException (java.lang.String,java.lang.Exception)
[javac] location: class java.lang.RuntimeException
[javac] throw new RuntimeException("Unable to create nullNode",e);
[javac] ^
Ok, I'll see in the jdk 1.3 there is no Exception(String reason, Exception rootException) constructor, that's way it fails compilling it won't very dificult to fix poorly, but if we don't want to loose information when running in 1.4 we'll need something like tomcat is used with one class that wraps the diferences between the jdks.
Anyhow I'll don't know how big is the interest of supporting jre 1.3 please raise your hands/email so I can see if worth the effort of doing more or less hacky for xml-sec 1.2 or we do right but for latter version.
