Mark,
As I recall, JCA 2.0.x had a package to support backward
compatibility with JCA 1.x. However, JCA 2.1.x introduced yet
another new API which isn't even compatible with JCA 2.0.x. JCA
2.1.x introduced several significant improvements (including bug
fixes) over previous versions.
The last time I checked, jprobe did not compile under JCA 2.1.x and
so I assume it is not being kept current. So, I would suggest trying
JCA 2.0.x or sticking with JCA 1.x if you want to use jprobe.

That doesn't seem to be the case. The package name has been changed
from

jca to gov.aps.jca. Changing the name to gov.aps.jca in the jprobe

source does not fix the problem, because it still references the 1.x

api, e.g., BadCountException, which does not exist in 2.x.
Is there some way to enable compatibility mode or should I use jca 1.x
with jprobe?
