RE: [eclipselink-dev] Attention: Changes to build planned for next wee. WAS: (Re: Proposed changes to automated build - use of JDK 6)

Eric,
This sounds good, I have been running on JDK 1.6.0_04 (targetting 1.5) locally for the last 3 months no problem since the change to add the compiler version tag [javac.version=1.5 (default)] was added to 1.0M9 on June 9th in REV 17631
see
http://bugs.eclipse.org/214261
and
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/attachment.cgi?id=104114&action=diff
thank you
/michael

wee. WAS: (Re: Proposed changes to automated build - use of JDK 6)
Hello all,
Since no one responded to to this email earlier, it seems that nobody
cares about a compiler change
from JDK 1.5 to Jdk 1.6 (specifying a targeted vm of 1.5). However, I
wanted to give fair warning anyway.
I currently testing out this change, and am planning on making it
permanent next Wednesday (8/24).
This change will impact all branches nightly and continuous builds, but
Eclipse based builds not at all.
If you have any concerns let me know.
-Eric
