RE: [Cobertura-devel] Using jdk 1.3?

[Mark D. <Mar...@sa...>]

FYI line 186 is a call to String.replaceAll(), which is new in jdk1.4.

It might be possible to compile your classes with 1.3 (or use 1.4 and =
specify a 1.3 source and target), instrument your classes using 1.4, run =
your tests using 1.3, then generate the coverage reports using 1.4.  It =
seems like it would take some annoying fiddling with ant to get that to =
work correctly.

The other option is to modify Cobertura to work with 1.3.  That's not =
something I'm against... I was just hoping we could avoid it.

	I have a project that requires jdk1.3. Is there any way to use =
Cobertura with 1.3? When I do, I consistently get the following =
exception:

	Alternatively, with multiple jdk's installed, is there any way I can =
specify a 1.3 compile for my source, and run Cobertura with 1.4 or 1.5?

	Thanks!
