[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBAS-4148) Replace Gjt code used in the ejb 2.x validation phase

[Juha Lindfors (JIRA)]

    [ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-4148?page=comments#action_12374973 ] 
            
Juha Lindfors commented on JBAS-4148:
-------------------------------------

Scott is correct, it is ancient code with little to no functionality -- couple of utility classes and tagging interfaces with no use. Should be a trivial exercise to replace.

> However, the Gjt project has never released a 1.0 version, only a 0.6 version for the Linffors utils and the jpl_util_0_6 is the only tag in their CVS.
> So, what is the meaning for version 1.0?  The CVS tip?
> Also, what is marked as gjt-jpl-util also contains gjt-jpl-pattern, and the latest CVS tag for that is:
> jpl-pattern_0_3_b    (0.3 beta perhaps)
> Besides, there is a warning in the pattern source directory:
