Description Dave Nebinger 2005-09-30 09:31:47 UTC

Please find attached log4j-1.2.12-r1.ebuild and associated patch.

The build.xml for log4j uses the "-source 1.1" when compiling the source files.
 This fails on many recent compilers (i.e. jikes and sun-jdk-1.5) because they
no longer support source version 1.1.

The ebuild, and patch, alter the build.xml to use "-source 1.3" which is
currently supported by the recent compilers.

Comment 3 Dave Nebinger 2005-09-30 09:34:46 UTC

I should mention that the ebuild I provided blindly applies the patch.  Being
new to 'ebuilding', I'm not sure if the patch can be selectively applied when
using a newer compiler but exclude the patch for older compilers.

Also I only included an ebuild for log4j-1.2.12, although the same patch and
change could be applied to all of the log4j versions in portage to allow them to
compile under newer jdks.

Comment 5 Dave Nebinger 2005-09-30 09:47:03 UTC

I'll agree that this is a duplicate 'problem' to #107122, but instead of just 
stating it's a problem I provided an ebuild solution to fix it.

Doesn't that make it unresolved in that the ebuild/patch wasn't applied to 
portage?
