I don't know much about those tools, but it wouldn't seem feasible to supply 1.5 compatible libraries (otherwise the stupid classpath project would have been abandoned long ago).
I think the bug fixing that has gone into 1.5 libraries is just as important as the language changes. -----Original Message----- From: Yonik Seeley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 20, 2006 2:31 PM To: java-dev@lucene.apache.org Subject: Re: Results (Re: Survey: Lucene and Java 1.4 vs. 1.5) On 6/20/06, Steven Rowe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Could not tools like Retrotranslator[2] or Retroweaver[3] be used to > satisfy both camps? That's an interesting option Steven... Retrotranslator certainly looks like they handle almost everything! If we ended up taking that route, we have enough 1.4 users that I think it would be nice to have - a 1.4 compatible jar included in the distributions along with the 1.5 jar - an easy way to run all the unit tests against the 1.4 compatible jar -Yonik http://incubator.apache.org/solr Solr, the open-source Lucene search server --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
