hi,

i ran the build file a few times and made sure that the relivant files were in the locations specified above. i keep getting the above errors. is this a problem with my java version (1.5) ?

cheers for the help

Enum is a reserved keyword in jdk 1.5, so it breaks code that makes use of the commons-lang Enum class.

Either use a 1.4 compiler, or modify the ant file as follows:

<javac source="1.4" ....... >
</javac>

please use a newer version of hibernate2 if you want it to compile with an jdk 1.5. (note: it can *run* without problems on jdk 1.5)

do you know when version 3 of hibernate will be ready for release? will it support java 1.5?

Hibernate2 runs fine under JDK 1.5, and so will Hibernate3.

Which version are you compiling ? I can't find the enum warnings you are referring to - look to me you are using a old Hibernate 2.

this is the version of hibernate im running: 2.1.7c,
ive tried it on a machine running 1.4.2 and it builds successfully and creates the hibernate2.jar file.

the hibernate2.jar i was using previously, was the one that came with the hibernate-2.1.7c.zip file that i downloaded from the hibernate.org website.

is there any classpaths that are needed to be set up with hibernate as i havnt seen any specified.

Sorry, there have actually just been a minor update in CVS since 2.1.7 which removes this and the line your errors indicate is now:
Enumeration entries = jarFile.entries();
and *not*
Enumeration enum = jarFile.entries();

But as suggested by others - use source level 1.4 and it will work fine.
Or even just use the hibernate.jar as is, no need to recompile it (AFAIK) to make it work under 1.5

cheers max,

ill give that a go and see how it works out.
