Tomcat on Linux

[Viju Varkey <vi...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

    I am using jdk 1.4 and Ant 1.8.0 for building Tomcat 5.5.31 on Linux.
But the build fails with the following error:

build-static:
    [style] Warning: the task name <style> is deprecated. Use <xslt>
instead.
    [style] Transforming into

 Any solution?

You're going to be hard pressed to find anyone that cares about building Tomcat on a JDK level that hasn't been supported by Sun/Oracle for ages.

Why are you even bothering to build Tomcat?  It's Java, so just use it.
