Users - Any updates about JDK 1.5

[Brad Plies]

Hi everyone,

I cannot recall or find any recent discussion about successfully running
OFBIZ (or porting OFBIZ to) JDK 1.5.  The last thing I found was this:

http://lists.ofbiz.org/pipermail/dev/2005-June/008746.html (Which went
unanswered)

What are the current reasons that OFBIZ cannot be run with JDK 1.5?  Is
there any interest in upgrading OFBIZ sources to use
updated/newer/better classes & packages?

The reason I ask is that much of my code relies on the excellent
concurrency tools provided in JDK 1.5's java.util.concurrent package
which I believe offers a lot of standardized advantages to managing and
scheduling executable tasks.

I'm not advocating an upgrade just for the newness of it all, I'm just
trying to gather comments about the status.

Brad

Great job. This way we can try to deploy OFBIZ to latest JDK1.5 based Server.

That is good to know, ie that in the latest JOTM and Carol Java 1.5 is supported.

This is going to be complicated by the fact that we really need to move to something else for the Apache move because of licensing issues... We are considering right now going with Geronimo, and I'm not sure if Geronimo will run on Java 1.5...

Si,

Thanks for the post.  This sounds a lot easier than moving to Geronimo
right now.

Hey everybody -

Just so you know I actually haven't tried this myself and would like to know your experiences with it.

Hi Si,

I was trying to follow the steps in that post, one thing I did not figure out is what dose he mean by following step:

"
Change the JotmContainer.java in the  
framework/jotm component, change the config part to  
 
URL resource = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().getResource( carolPropName); 
ConfigurationRepository.init( resource); 
NameServiceManager.startNS();

"

Where should I add these few lines of code? Can you share me some of your idea?

Thanks
Lei

Hi Folks,

I'm just reporting that I have followed the suggested steps provided by that user on the SourceForge forum.  I get a successful clean compile, but OFBIZ cannot start.  It has similar error messages in the JOTM area as if you were simply to run the latest SVN with JDK 1.5 without upgrading the JOTM & Carol JARS.

ant run-install
     [java] Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: sun.rmi.transport.ObjectTable.getStub(Ljava/rmi/Remote;)Ljava/rmi/server/RemoteStub;

        at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:188)

The updated JARS are in the classpath as far as I can tell, and do in fact contain the so-called missing class of
'org.objectweb.carol.jndi.ns.JacORBCosNaming'

Perhaps a few steps were omitted in that persons description, or perhaps a dependency on some different RMI specification somewhere, but so far I haven't got it to work yet.
