Обсуждение: why does old driver need to be removed before build in ant ?

Hi...

When i try to build the JDBC driver with ant jar, it says that i need
to remove the older driver from the classpath. When i look at the
build.xml, this is a simple check with a fail message.

I don't understand why this has to be done. How will it affect the
build process? I don't see any problem in compiling the driver and
building the jar . Why is this check present ?

Thanks in advance

It causes problems with building because the compiler will see the old
classes which conflict with the new classes. It may be that since
jdbc1.xxx has been removed this is no longer the case.
