Rob Moore commented on XMLBEANS-180:
------------------------------------
After some more research, it appears that this issue may be solved in the 2.0
release (I was using a beta) insofar as I should be able to build jars use for
1.4 JDKs.
Looking at the source for xxx version 2.0 final
org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.tool.XMLBean, I noticed at around line 255:
if (source != null)
{
javac.setSource(source);
javac.setTarget(source);
}
else
{
javac.setSource("1.4");
javac.setTarget("1.4");
}
Source seems to be an undocumented attribute that appears to have the same
purpose as a combination of source and target in javac. However, looking at the
code comments, the attribute seems to be under review:
//REVIEW this allows people to deal with the case where they drag in
//more files for compilation than they should. not sure if this is
//a good thing or not
private String source = null;
public void setSource(String s) { source = s; }
> Add 'javatarget' attribute to ant task so that it behaves like ant javac task

> I am on a machine running the 1.5 JDK. However, I must generate xmlbean jar
> files that are compatible with 1.4 JDKs. I expected there to be an attribute
> similar to that found in the ant javac task that allows one to generate class
> files for specific VM version, like so:
> <javac srcdir="${src}"
> destdir="${build}"
> source="1.4"
> target="1.4"
> />
> I thought that setting the javasource attribute might have this effect, but
> it does not. As a result of not having this feature, I am unable to generate
> compatible jars from within ant using my current build process which makes
> use of the above-mentioned javac attribute.
