Firstly this is the wrong mailing list for this sort of question. There are mailing 
lists
soley for discussing tomcat. Please check the website for details.

I am pretty sure that all Tomcat uses is the environment variable "JAVA_HOME" which 
should
point to the JDK that you wish to use.

jdk1.4

[JavaWriter2002]

The latest version of Tomcat is great but it only recognizes jdk1.3 as the
latest development kit.  It does not recognize jdk1.4 as being installed
even though it is.  The error is the first thing to happen right when you start 
installing.  
I realize jdk1.4 is still in beta but are both Jakarta and jdk developers addressing 
this?

Thank You.

Just a humble suggestion.  Under *NIX the 'which' command is used for finding
the binary that would be executed if you were to execute the given command.

Ex:

%shell%> which ls
/bin/ls

I would suggest renaming this to something more descriptive, maybe WhichEnv.  I
do realize it is in a package though.  I usually re-alias my java commands to
become the classname minus the package, therefore which and Which would get
confusing :)
