Paul:

Now, this isn't some lame language like C here! <g> A package import
(where you use *) doesn't mean squat.  You still only use the
expliclty referenced classes from the code.  A package import simply
allows access to all members of the package; it doesn't bring them in
like the evil, evil #include.

There have been several suggestions that a deja-news search would turn
up on this.  If folks can't bring themselves to include that very tiny
file and don't want to add the 10 or so lines of code per constraint
I've encouaged them to look at the source and copy it into their own
util package.  A quick change in import and a recompile before
deploying and they've removed the horrible jbcl from their project.

However, they do have a deployment license for that class, that class
calls on no other classes so does not increase the deployed set by
more then it's own size (and less if a compressed archive is used).

Ah well.  It is such a bad thing that it has been incorporated into
Java 2 and will probably be back ported to JDK 1.1x in the future.

If you see something that looks like an opinion up there,
it's mine and mine alone.

Mail sent to me from the newsgroups won't bounce but will
be ignored.  If I have time, I'll respond, but you  have
a better chance if you confine your posts to the newsgroups
