Right, there are some platforms which require certain JDKs I would like to integrate axis with our existing production systems, but sadly they run on jdk 1.2 and there will be no effort to migrate the jdk at all.
I dont know about Java1.2, I suspect that the 1.3 features are too integral to the runtime to cope.
I note that the JAX-RPC specification says 'Java >=1.3', Servlets >= version 2.3. As it stands, Axis is still at Servlets 2.2, but I would like to push Axis1.2 towards being a 2.3 system, as then we can use the lifecycle events to clean up better. So future Axis will only be harder to work with. Sorry. But having worked on a project that tried to be very backwards compatible, I know it adds a lot of extra grief for the benefit of very few people.
