RE: JDK 1.1.8 problems
Folks,
I just finished porting HttpClient 2.0rc1 to JRE 1.1. If there's enough
interest I'll put a semi-official HttpClient fork on SourceForge.org for
those who, like me ,still have to support Java 1.1 platforms.
Any strong opinions for or against it?
Cheers
Oleg

Maybe maintain a patch for the required source modifications?

It's such a shame for it to be dead on arrival. It would be nice if we
could keep it tied to HttpClient directly somehow. Other than replacing
all java.util names with the collection.jar package names what must be
done? Would it be possible to just include some directions, an Ant
script, and a few custom classes in contrib?

This year release is going to be the last one with JRE 1.1 support as
far as my application is concerned. I doubt I would actively maintain
the port myself. Unless someone else steps in, the port would be pretty
much unmaintainable.

How much work was involved in the port? Is it something that will be
maintainable?
