I'm wondering the same! Would it be possible to name the jar files like so
commons-beanutils-1.4.jar commons-collections-2.0.jar commons-digester-1.3.jar commons-logging-1.0.1.jar commons-pool-1.0.jar struts-1.1-b1.jar etc? I know this isn't a struts problem and it would be a bad idea for the struts team to start renaming the jar files from other Jakarta projects. But would it be possible for all Jakarta projects to follow this standard? That would make my and I'm sure a lot of other people's lives easier. Is this a bad idea, if so why? I know it would make the creation of build scripts a little harder, but it would still be possible to create them. The other option is the META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file. Most jar files contain there version number in them but not all. For example Version 2.0 of commons-collections.jar manifest file contains 'Implementation-Version: 1.1-dev' and not 'Implementation-Version: 2.0' While struts.jar version 1.1-b1 contains 'Implementation-Vendor: Apache Software Foundation' Would it be possible to enforce this a bit more? Just me 2 (euro) cents. -----Original Message----- From: Arnaud HERITIER [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, July 10, 2002 12:33 PM To: Struts-Dev (E-mail); Struts Users Mailing List (E-mail) Subject: Struts dependencies Hi guys. I downloaded the last nighty build of struts. I would like to know which releases of external libraries are packaged with it. I already uses some libraries of jakarta commons and I would like to know which one I need to upgrade. After studying the manifest of jars I listed this : commons-beanutils : 1.4 dev commons-collections : 2.0 commons-dbcp : unknown (last dev I suppose) commons-digester : 1.3 dev commons-logging : 1.0.1 dev commons-pool : 1.0 commons-services : 1.0 dev (can't find it on the jakarta site. What it is ??) commons-validator : unknown (last dev) jakarta-oro : unknown Can you confirm my assumptions. Are all jars usefull for struts or are there some of them used by some extensions like tiles, .. ??? Thanks a lot.
