The problem really is with me - I fess up. Bill's mad because I broke
the build twice this week by inadvertantly checking in code (throwing an
exception that is the new overloaded version in 1.4) that only compiles
on 1.4.   Unfortunately, my whole work and home environment *DO* require
1.4 and only works under 1.4 - so I sometimes forget to re-set my path
to JDK1.3 when I compile.  So, it compiles fine under 1.4.  I'm changing
my jboss build environment to force my path and JDK to 1.3 before it
runs.  Maybe be can update the build.bat/.sh to automatically do this
(or at least check the version before you compile) and that would fix
this problem for everyone?

I'd prefer to have a reliable way to report these problems, since I
don't consider it realistic for me to develop on 1.3.1.  How do you
detect them?

For the particular problem of nested exceptions, I think we should
always use the jboss NestedThrowable stuff Jason wrote since it provides
a much more reasonable stack trace.  Dain and I made as much as we could
find of the jca and jta frameworks use this with good results. How could
we make this better known and popularize it?

thanks
