External JAR File [message #23600]

Hello,

first of all thanks for investing so much time and doing such a great
job with MTJ.

I can write some "HelloWorld" code and deploy it to the mobile without
a problem.

I start having problems when I include an external JAR file. I have added
it
correctly in "Libraries" and checked it in "Order and Export". When I
don't use the external JAR in my code, everything works fine. When I
start using it, I get an the following error message:

ALERT: java/lang/ClassFormatError: Bad version information.

The external jar file I am trying to use is
qrcode(http://qrcode.sourceforge.jp).
I have set the "Compile Compliance Level" to 1.4, but that doesn't change a
thing.

I have a hunch that says, that the external jar is in an incompatible
format, but
how can I turn it into a compatible one?

I am using the following software versions:

Eclipse: 3.4.1
MJT: 0.9.0
Java: 1.5.0_16

best regards,
sigi

Hello sigi,

The problem really seems to be the fact that your external library is
compiled with an unsupported class version. The library must be compiled
in a 1.3 class version so it can be used in a Java ME application. So you
should compile the sources into a 1.3 compatible class version to be able
to use it.

Best Regards,

David Marques

Yes, that was the problem and recompiling the library fixed it.

best regards,
