For information on using OGSA-DAI Axis with Tomcat 5.5 see Section C.1.4, “How do I use Tomcat 5.5 with OGSA-DAI Axis? ”. |
![[Warning]](images/warning.gif) | Warning |
|---|---|
OGSA-DAI Axis is not compatible with Tomcat 5.5. |
Apache ANT is used as the OGSA-DAI build, installation and deployment tool. We recommend ANT 1.6 or above, see http://ant.apache.org.
OGSA-DAI requires Java 1.4 or 1.5.
| Warning |
|---|---|
OGSA-DAI 3.0 does not compile under Java 1.6. This is due
to changes in java.sql APIs (in which
both additional methods and classes have been added) from earlier
versions of Java. The OGSA-DAI team may release a Java 1.6 patch
in the near future.

You will also need database drivers suitable for any data resources you wish to use with OGSA-DAI. The drivers required depend on the specific data resource being used. Data resources against which OGSA-DAI has been tested are listed in Chapter 3, Data resource products.
