Note that with v2.1.23, the v2.2 1 Geronimo server adapter feature provides server adapters for both the v1.1.x, v2.0.x , and v2.1.x and v2.2 Geronino servers. The reason for supporting v1.1.x server is to make v1Previously, v2.0.x and v2.1.x server adapter compatible with latest version of eclipse. But since Geronimo 1.1 did not officially support JDK 6, it's not recommended to use v1.1.x server adapter with JDK 6.See the requirement in GERONIMODEVTOOLS-578 .adapaters were provided by separate features. Partly to simplify things, these features were combined into one. |
