JDT is great, but the problem is colliding with other versions of JDT. As the compiler APIs are "internal" in eclipse, they do change from version to version, whcih causes us grief.
We had issues even in Tomcat for instance. We had an issue with M6 when we were trying to use the M5 JDT ! So until JDT stabilises, we have switched to janino. As we use JCI, its a 0.001 line change, switching a constant - thats it. We will probably make it an optional system property if people like.
