package versions

Hello,

I've got some trouble with lots of different package versions...
Batik (1.1rc4) uses (as far as I can see) the following libraries:

- js.jar
- crimson-parser.jar

Unfortunately these jars don't contain a manifest with package version
infos, so I don't know which version batik uses. Since I probably need
crimson-parser twice (another library needs it too) I will get 
problems with different versions maybe.

What versions are used in batik 1.1rc4?

And, addressed to the developers, it it possible to add version infos in

batik's manifest file (using package version identification)? And,
perhaps, 
is it possible to rename in future releases of batik the required 3rd
party libraries including their version, like batik-1.1.jar or something
like this? A wonderful solution would be if all xml.apache projects
would include a package version identification...

Jens,

The js.jar is Rhino1.5R2. I let others answer for crimson and to the
generic question on package naming.

You are asking for the js or crimson version in the project they
come from, right?

js.jar is  Rhino15R2 
I think Stephane will be able to tell you which version of Crimson we
are
using.

Point well taken for the manifest: I have added an RFE for that 
(Bug #5044). About the jar, I am not sure. This said, we do that for
ant (we use ant_1_4_1.jar). This has value, but one drawback is that
you need to update your scripts/batch files every time a new version
comes up. Anybody has comments, ideas on this?

Thanks for your feedback.

Cheers,
Vincent.
