[Mondrian] JDK 1.5 support / JMX

[Matt Campbell]

I was wondering about that.  I hate to introduce more conditional logic around jdk version, but maybe that could be an option.

I had added MonitorMXBean to the implements list of MonitorImpl, so we'd also need to somehow account for that.  Possibly by using 2 versions of the interface, one which includes MXBean, and one which would be empty for jdk 1.5.

Matt,

If we have the build system compile the JMX classes only against java 6+ (like we do with JDBC implementations) would that fix it? We'd have to add the trigger code in UtilCompatible, with a dummy implementation that does nothing in JDK 5 and lower.

I recently made some minor changes in my local fork to expose the
Mondrian monitoring metrics via JMX.  I expect this could be useful for
administrators trying to keep tabs on the current state of their
Mondrian instances.  The changes I made require a feature introduced in
jdk1.6, however, so we won't be able to incorporate it until we stop
supporting 1.5.

So:  how many people are still using 1.5?  What are people's opinions on
how long we should continue to support 1.5?
