I'm pretty sure I compiled it to a 1.2 version (==JDBC2.0?) although with
the requirements of gnujsp/jserv/apache I may have tied myself in a knot.
Failing that, I'm using a 1.3 vm on Windows 98 to communicate with a 1.1.8
FreeBSD JVM. That could be the prob?? (actually, having said it, it sounds
like that could well be the problem) Its all to try and faciliate
persistance of Java objects with EJBoss (www.ejboss.org); if there's easier
options I'm happy. This is probably an effort everyone in the open source
comunity will benefit from too when you realize the benefits of EJB's...
Thanks heaps for input,
(BTW, the 'Z' error sounds ominous :)
(And also BTW, I love the way people overseas are awake when I'm busily
coding at night... Australians coders must be a dying breed :)
Cheers,
Joe
