[jira] Created: (DERBY-3104) Outdated build information in http://db.apache.org/derby/manuals/dita.html

Outdated build information in http://db.apache.org/derby/manuals/dita.html
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: DERBY-3104
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3104
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Web Site
            Reporter: Kim Haase
            Priority: Minor


The DITA Source page of the Derby web site (http://db.apache.org/derby/manuals/dita.html) states that Apache Ant Version 1.6.2 and JDK 1.4.2 are required to build the documentation. 

In fact, I have found out (mostly by accident) that it is possible to build the documentation using Apache Ant Version 1.6.5 and either JDK 1.5 or JDK 6. For me this works on either Solaris or Windows XP. 

I don't know if the behavior has actually changed (i.e. someone modified the toolkit to work with later Ants and JDKs) or if the page was first written when Ant 1.6.2 and JDK 1.4.2 were current.

It would be a good idea to change this page to reflect the current situation, if someone else can confirm that later software versions work.

I have not tried Ant 1.7.

[jira] Resolved: (DERBY-3104) Outdated build information in http://db.apache.org/derby/manuals/dita.html

Myrna van Lunteren resolved DERBY-3104.
---------------------------------------

    Resolution: Duplicate

With DERBY-4556, these entries now read 'and later', so I think this can be marked as a duplicate (although DERBY-4556 included a few further refinements).
