Definitely true. As I develop in Eclipse set to using a default JDK of 1.4, I am confident to not use Java 5 API.

It is not enough to just say target 1.4 when compiling. You really need to avoid compiling against the 5.0 class libs to catch mistakes in using 5.0 introduced classes and methods.

So I quickly crosschecked the class file versions of the snapshots I deployed lately (OSGi core, scr, metatype and configadmin) and they all are Version 48, i.e pre-1.5 class files. Looking at the parent pom in felix/trunk, this is expected as the compiler plugin is configured to generate Java 1.4 class files (lines 295-301). Hope this helps. Regards Felix On 4/11/07, Richard S.
