[Clirr-devel] Initial questions

[Simon K. <si...@ec...>]

Hi,

Can someone let me know the answers to the following?

* 
What Java version is clirr required to be compatible with?
eg are java1.4-specific features allowed in the clirr codebase?

I'm particularly thinking about XSL-related features. I would like to
generate reports using xslt. Java 1.4 introduced the first built-in
support for xslt. Can this support be assumed to be present or not?

*
I would like to add a class to allow clirr to be run from the
command-line. Is this ok? And is it ok to add a dependency on
jakarta-commons-cli for this purpose?

*
I had trouble compiling the code initially due to the non-ascii
"u-umlaut" character in the name "Lars Kuhne". In the ant buildfile I
had to add "encoding='ISO-8859-1'" in order to compile.[NB: I created an
ant buildfile by hand as I had problems with Maven].

Is there any chance this could be converted to an ascii "u"? (yes, I
realise it would technically be a mis-spelling).


Thanks,

Simon
