1. You need JDK 1.4 to build Tomcat 5.5. 2. The version of Ant targeted by the build script is 1.6.2. One of the reasons why you cannot build it with Java 6, is that the version of Apache Commons DBCP used in it has to run on Java 1.4 and cannot be built with Java 6 because of java.sql API changes. See also BUILDING.txt in the source distributive or in svn repository. It is more authoritative than building.html.
