What is critical for us is to be able to compile the core libraries with
1.2.2 if we need to patch them. In 2.0.2a, we had to change a few lines of
code to get it to compile.

It would be convenient to have the core jar compiled with 1.2.2, but I
don't see that as a firm requirement. Just make sure it CAN compile. The
contrib package should be fair game, though I'd encourage folks to not push
the envelope too far...maybe we need an experimental jar!

Thanks for asking.

Until now, I've been trying very hard to keep Tapestry compatible with JDK
1.2.2 ... that is, using the JDK 1.2.2 compiler.

I'm in the middle of an upgrade to JBoss 3.0.0 but I thought I'd check teh
build process.  Here's the problem:

Compiling 10 source files to C:\Work\export\Tapestry\contrib\classes

BUILD FAILED


They've been compiling using JDK 1.3 or 1.4.

It would simplify things for me greatly to simply compile using JDK 1.3 ...
perhaps with the -target 1.2 option.

People have had some problems using Tapestry with WebSphere and with
certain
JVMs (JRockit, I believe).  Has that been resolved?

We may be getting to the point where if you need JDK 1.2.2, you'll need to
recompile the source code yourself.  Is that truly terrible?
