[Wonder-disc] Which servlet.jar versions does (will?) Wonder support?

[OpenMacNews <Ope...@sp...>]

hi all,

in order to ant-build ProjectWonder on OSX 10.3.8, one needs to have 
'servlet.jar' in the default classpath.

to do so successfully, I need to:

	% cp /Library/WebObjects/Extensions/servlet.jar 
/Library/Java/Extensions/servlet.jar

where, /Library/WebObjects/Extensions/servlet.jar is from the WebObjects 5.2.3 
install:

	% ls -al /Library/WebObjects/Extensions/servlet.jar
		-rw-rw-r--  1 devuser admin 78064 Mar  1  2004 
/Library/WebObjects/Extensions/servlet.jar

with this done, all builds w/o error. cool.

however, there are other servlet.jar instances on my system.

these include:

(a) # from the Apple OSX 10.3.8 / XCode 1.5x devtools install
-rw-rw-r--  1 devuser admin 78064 Oct 30  2002 
/Developer/Java/J2EE/jakarta-servletapi-4/lib/servlet.jar
-rw-rw-r--  1 devuser admin 80054 Mar 19  2003 
/Library/Tomcat/common/lib/servlet.jar

(b) # from an Eclipse IDE install
-rw-r--r--  1 devuser admin 79265 Sep 16 09:11 
.../eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.tomcat_4.1.30/servlet.jar

(c) # from a Tomcat v5.6.7 install
-rw-r--r--  1 devuser admin 97693 Jan 19 12:40 
/usr/local/javadev/tomcat/common/lib/servlet-api.jar


I'd expect that ProjectWonder builds with WebObjects' installed servlet.jar -- 
and it does.

I'd hope that it builds with others, so that I can end up with a single, 
consistently used, instance of the api across webapps, etc.  unfortunately, 
with any of the *other* jars, the build fails w/ a bundh of 'nested exceptions' 
in the output.

## QUESTION(s)

(1) Does ProjectWonder presume/require a particular, old, servlet.jar?
(2) Does it, frankly, matter that I have *multiple* servlet.jars in my 
classpath?
(3) Is there any effort currently underway to migrate Wonder to 
compliance/compatibility with a newer servlet api?  specifically, the Tomcat 
v5.5+ apis?

thanks,
