Description

When you compile using JDK1.2 you get the following error message:
[javac]
/home/kstrauss/cvs/updated/PSI_PsUtil/org/apache/commons/logging/impl/LogFactoryImpl.java:457:
No method matching getContextClassLoader() found in class
org.apache.commons.logging.impl.LogFactoryImpl.
[javac] ClassLoader threadCL = getContextClassLoader();

It does however compile succesfully under JDK1.4

I believe that this is related to a bug in the Javac compiler (see
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4269441)

Using this as a base the following addition will enable the class to compile
under JDK1.2.

protected static ClassLoader getContextClassLoader() throws
LogConfigurationException
{
return LogFactory.getContextClassLoader();
}

Can we add this?
