Hi all,
Over at Directory we're discussing the use of JDK 1.5 specific API's for
some critical functionality needed for a 1.0 release of the directory
server. We find ourselves in a Catch-22 where LDAPv3 compliance
requires support for SSL and SASL. Use of these API's would make
ApacheDS 1.4 incompatible. We are currently looking for alternatives so
embedding projects like Geronimo are not affected.
If we have no choice but to use 1.5 APIs in future releases of ApacheDS
what impact will this have on Geronimo?
Does Geronimo run on JDK 1.5? If so is binary compatibility with 1.4 a
requirement? (I'm guessing yes.)
Also is there a way in which ApacheDS integration can be made pluggable
and available when running under a 1.5 JVM?
Thanks,
Alex
