Tapestry 4 JDK and JVM Requirements (was: Adding annotation suppo rt to Tapestry 4)

["Hensley, Richard" <Ri...@McKesson.com>]

I might be the only one, but I would like to have some clarity regarding the
Tapestry 4 build and runtime JDK/JVM requirements.

JDK Build Requirement:

Is JDK 5 going to be required to build Tapestry?

Or

If you build Tapestry with JDK 5, then the annotation module builds along
with all other modules.
If you build Tapestry with < JDK 5, then the annotation module does not
build, but the framework, contrib, and portlet modules build.

I'm +1 for either of these scenarios, I would just like to know which is the
case.

JVM Runtime Requirement:

The framework, contrib, and portlet Tapestry 4.0 binary files will be
compatible JDK 1.3+ and the annotation binary will be compatible with JDK 5.

Need to get this into the documentation (under dependencies).

The main code line, tapestry, tapestry-contrib, tapestry-portal, will
all be JDK 1.3 compatible.  The are compiled -source 1.3 and -target
1.1.

The annotations library will be compiled for, a required, JDK 1.5.

For the moment, at least, JDK 1.5 will be required to build Tapestry.
