Patrick I agree here but the simple fact of the matter is that I do not know what the problem is nor why it is there. It may be a simple matter to fix but until we know what the problem is there is no fix to apply. I can tell you where the code is to look at it but I have not the time for debugging the of that problem right now. I want to get a version out that works with the current versions and then move on.
This seems the only problem so far as I know for the 5.0 version. Are there others? If so what are they? Take a look at the code and let me know where you think the problems are and/or fix them for me. As far as the warnings you told me about yesterday they are just that warnings. It still compiles, runs and works for those parts. Yes it would be a simple matter fix for the 5.0 by taking out the (null) for the dynamic loading of modules but then it will not compile for the 1.4 and 1.3 versions. As far as using the different modules for different versions that is what we do now but I still do not see any reason for adding other modules for 1.5 until we see that it is a problem that can not be fixed any other way. Let me tell you it is a real pain in the ass doing this. I have tried to keep it to a minimum where possible and only change those that I think would benefit. This is not a mac vs linux vs windows problem but a JDK version problem. If you get the rubber banding code to work in a 1.5 version it should work for all am thinking. Search in the sources for 'rubber band' and all that code should be what needs to be changed or looked at.
