Bug 74187 – Can't emerge log4j with sun-jdk-1.5.0 regardless of USE-flags

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Claes Mogren 2004-12-12 06:05:22 UTC]

All ebuilds for log4j fails to build with sun-jdk-1.5.0. With or without changeing the USE-flags. I have searched for log4j in the buglist and posted in bug #71636 without any replies. This is NOT a duplicate of that bug!

It wants to build jmx even with the "-jmx" USE-flag, why?. My info is:

Not all stuff does work with Java 5, yet. That's, why this package is hard masked.

[Comment 2 Claes Mogren 2004-12-12 13:49:41 UTC]

I tried with sun-jdk-1.4.05 too, but that didn't work either. But after I unmerged  dev-java/ant, dev-java/ant-core and dev-java/ant-tasks I could emerge ant-core and then log4j with 1.4. But then ant-tasks fails instead on this:

!!! build failed

That was with the standard emerge. To get around that I set the nocommonslogging USE-flag, but instead go this:

BUILD FAILED
java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: com/jcraft/jsch/Session (Unsupported major.minor version 49.0)

Finally, after adding the nojsch flag it compiled. Guess it had something to do with those tools being compiled with java-1.5.

Anyway, finally got ant back in. :')

At the present time, you can not expect your system to work if you compile packages with the JDK 1.5 and back down to JDK 1.4 afterwards.

By default, the JDK 1.5 creates .class files that will only run on 1.5 and
newer. This is what bites you. Recompile all packages you compiled with
1.5.

We are gradually adding 1.5 support to all packages, see #69970.

[Comment 4 Claes Mogren 2004-12-20 13:47:51 UTC]

Thanks for the info! Bug 69970 looks like a good way to deal with this. :)

[Comment 5 Jan Brinkmann (RETIRED) 2005-01-05 04:48:05 UTC]

we need only one bug to tell us that it's not possible at the moment to merge log4j using jdk-1.5, i think. :)
