RE: [Cobertura-devel] Using jdk 1.3?

[Woodward, J. <Joh...@sa...>]

I understand that completely. The situation here is a platform that
requires us to use 1.3 --- and they are relying on some 1.3 class
structures. For my purposes, the code coverage could be done completely
with 1.4 (ignoring the 1 compiler error we get), so ... I may end up
doing some fiddling with the jdk versions.

Let me see what I can do.

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!
