Ron Gavlin commented on TUSCANY-1237:
-------------------------------------
Amita,
The intention of this patch is to support JDK 1.4+ as a RUNTIME and not to
support the JDK 1.4+ compiler itself. The pom.xml in this patch still uses the
JDK 5 compiler however it is now configured to generate JDK 1.4-compatible
class files. The SDO build is configured identically. This patch just brings
the DAS build into alignment with the current SDO build which is sufficient for
my purposes.
It would be pretty straightforward to take the DAS build a step further and
support the JDK 1.4 compiler. The SDO build would require more work since one
or two non-runtime classes have real dependencies on JDK 5 features.
A potential enhancement to both the SDO and DAS builds would be to configure
their tests to run using a JDK 1.4+ runtime. It might make sense to open
another JIRA to track that enhancement if you think it makes sense.
Let me know if you have add'l questions.

> DAS should support JDK 1.4

> Tuscany DAS should support JDK 1.4. Since Tuscany DAS leverages SDO, it would
> seem to make sense for the DAS
> JDK requirements to be sync'd with the Tuscany SDO JDK requirements. Tuscany
> SDO currently supports JDK 1.4+. After browsing the DAS source code, there
> appear to be only a few places that leverage JDK 1.5 features. These could
> easily be replaced with JDK 1.4 functions. Please consider supporting JDK 1.4
> until SDO 3 is released at which time I presume SDO will require JDK 1.5.
