Actually, you'd be surprised to what Retroweaver/Retrotranslator can handle. Stripes, a Java 5 annotation-heavy web framework recently used it to allow Java 1.4 apps to use Stripes, despite using new Java 5 methods, annotations, and other features quite heavily. We (Struts) are planning on using Retrotranslator to support Java 1.4, while taking full advantage of Java 5 annotations and new class methods.
It can handle changes in the APIs like https://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=422219 (Java 1.3 vs. 1.4)? Or maybe even JDBC 3.0 vs JDBC 2.0? How is it doing it?
