Unable to set Compiler Complaince Level to 1.5 (or 5.0) [message #252037]

Hi,

I am using Eclipse 3.1.0 as an IDE for my Java project work. I am trying
to set compiler compliance level to 1.5 (or 5.0) but am unable to do so. I
have JDK1.5 installed on my machine. I have also configured it in my
eclipse inside Installed JREs (and have checked that JRE as my default
one). However, when I go to Window -> Preferences -> Java -> Compiler ->
Compliance and Classfiles, the drop box there for selecting Comppiler
Compliance Level shows only 1.3 and 1.4. I don't see a 1.5 or 5.0 option
there.

Can someone please help? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Regards
Neelesh

Hi Neelesh. If you are using Eclipse 3.1.0, you should consider
installing version 3.3 (e.g., 3.3.2) and this will most likely solve
your issue. Version 3.1 is over 2 years old and there have been many bug
fixes and enhancements over that time. Hope this helps. Mark

Hi Mark,

Thanks much for the response. I will upgrade my Eclipse and see if it
resolves the problem.

Also, make sure that you are running Eclipse on a 1.5 or later JRE. You can
confirm that by looking in Help -> About -> Configuration Details. Even if
you have a 1.5 JRE installed on your machine, Eclipse may not find it,
unless you explicitly specify it on the command line or in eclipse.ini.
