Re: updated BarracudaDiscRack!

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to note that Denny Chambers reported that the discrack app 
wasn't compiling.   It turned out that it compiled fine with Jikes (which 
is what I was using) but not with javac.  So, I guess the moral of the 
story is to make sure to check that both compilers work against any code 
that is to be checked in.  I've made the change to allow javac to 
compile.  I tagged CVS with jrk_20030205.  So, everything should work now.

here is what I wrote in the comments for the checkin for those who are 
curous what the error was....


compile was failing using the "modern" javac compiler.  I had done all 
testing with jikes which always succeeds.  The error was:

compile.project:
     [javac] Compiling 18 source files to

     [javac] Note: Recompile with -deprecation for details.
     [javac] 1 error

I removed the import line:
import org.enhydra.barracuda.core.util.*;

That fixed the error for the javac compiler.  I still don't understand why 
because that package does exist but, oh well, it works now.
