[Webtest] [dev] Which JRE? Only the one from Sun?

[Marc Guillemot]

Hi,

I was wrongly developing with Sun's JRE 5 which made me commit use of a 
Java 5 method. To look at it more carefully, I've linked against an 
alternate 1.4 JRE and seen that WebTest uses some Sun's Java internal 
classes.

com.canoo.webtest.extension.applet.cookie.Applet:
sun.net.www.content.text.PlainTextInputStream

com.canoo.webtest.plugins.emailtest.EmailMessageContentFilter:
sun.misc.UUDecoder

Is it really intended? Isn't it possible to avoid it? I think that it 
would be really much better if WebTest only uses standard JRE methods + 
provided libraries without making any assumptions about the JRE used.

What do you think?

Marc.
