o.a.j.compiler.JspUtil.makeJavaPackage currently is calling String.split. This means that you currently can't use Jasper (at least for compiling) with a 1.3.x JVM. Since Tomcat isn't a J2EE 1.4 container I can't see any justification in the spec for not supporting 1.3.x JVMs. However, since I don't spend a lot of my time with Jasper, I'd thought that I should get the opinions of people that do before hacking away ;-). The two ways I can see to go are:
1) Introduce a JdkCompat (similar to o.a.t.u.compat, but in Jasper since I can't see making Jasper depend on j-t-c). Pluses: People using 1.4 JVMs get all the benefits of String.split. Minuses: Requires a new package with two new classes. 2) Simply re-code makeJavaPackage to only use APIs from 1.3.x and higher. Basically switch Pluses and Minuses above. Of course, I'm willing to do the grunt-work to implement this. My personal preference is for 1), but if anyone has a better idea I'm open to that as well. Comments/Opinions/Flames?
