Java Version Compile Mismatch 1.5/1.6 [message #682369] Fri, 10 June 2011 23:45 Go to next message

I'm compiling a company project that uses JDBC and is written against Java 1.5. I'm running on Mac OS X 10.6.7. I'm getting an error in a class that extends java.sql.Statement that it does not implement isPoolable(). That requirement appeared in Java 1.6. I rechecked that my Eclipse global setting is set to 1.5 and that my project is set to use the global setting. Anybody know what I might be missing?

Thanks, Dan

The compiler level doesn't say anything about the API you compile against!

The only possibility is to use a Java 5 JDK to compile against.

True enough. I guess I'd assumed that setting the compiler to 1.5 or 1.6 would set the JDK, but apparently it does not. Looking at the global preferences Jave -> Build Path -> Classpath Variables, the JDK entries remains the same when changing the compiler level:

JRE_LIB /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5.0/Classes/classes.jar

So that would seem to confirm that I'm using 1.5 libs, correct? The mystery remains.

Go to your project and see what Java container it is using. That is the
JRE that the project is using.

Isn't that you get the compiler error because the method is marked as
@Override?

Hi,

In article <it82q2$2to$1@news.eclipse.org>,

Please make sure you really have a proper 1.5 version of Java. Snow
Leopard by default has

$ ls -l /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5.0/
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 59 May 30 21:21
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5.0/ ->
/System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents

just for (limited) backward compatibility. If you need to compile
against a proper 1.5 version of the Java SDK you need to install one
yourself.
