Survey summary

Thanks very much for all your responses - here is a summary of the information:

24   Respondents
62   OS/JVM combinations

Java versions
-------------------
39  JVM 1.4
22  JVM 1.5
 1  unkown

OS types
--------------
37  Windows
16  Linux
 4  Unix
 4  OS X
 1  VMS

JMeter versions
-----------------------
30  2.0.3
14  CVS
 2  2.0.2
 4  2.0.1
 2  1.9.1
 1  1.8
 9  Unknown

As can be seen, the majority of platforms are using JVM 1.4.
No users reported using Java 1.3.

Over half the installations are on Windows, the rest being some form
of Unix (apart from 1 on VMS).

Minimum Java version 1.4? (was: Survey summary)

Posted by sebb <se...@gmail.com>.
Can we now assume that 1.4 is the minimum version required?

This would allow us to tidy up various aspects of the build (e.g.
chained exceptions and some methods which now have charset parameters,
etc), and I think we might be able to dispense with the xalan, xerces
and xml-apis jars.
[I marked most of the work-rounds with "JDK 1.4"]

But it might be a good idea to hold off these less essential changes
until we've migrated to SVN.

I find it interesting no one out there responded with a BSD OS.  And no
one using 1.3, and nearly everyone using Sun's JVM.
