Description
We currently use version 2.2 of the backport-util-concurrent.jar. According to the site that maintains this library (http://backport-jsr166.sourceforge.net/), the latest version is 3.1. We are considering updating for a couple of reasons:
- better compatibility with various JDK versions (the latest 3.1 version has libraries for JDK 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 5.0, and 6.0)
- potential bug fixes
- better compatibility with various JDK versions (the latest 3.1 version has libraries for JDK 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 5.0, and 6.0)
- potential bug fixes

Maybe the best solution will be to remove that dependency and use features of JDK 1.5 or 1.6?

We'll be standardizing on Java 5+ and using the standard libraries in ICEfaces 2.0 +.

Good idea. In my case I'm using Icefaces running and compiled, for jdk 1.5 level, with backport-util-concurrent-3.1-Java50.jar. Everything works fine but I don't see any performance improvement.
Tested dependency for maven users of icefaces.pom
