I personally think we can now safely retroweave to 1.4.
+1 Although we don’t even need to discuss that in the context of Simon’s change, IMO. Like the comment says in the build.xml file, the task doesn’t need to be run at every build. So 1.4 compatibility still is available. OTOH, the new UnicodeClasses class has quite a few checkstyle warnings that it would be good if they were fixed. Also, I have concerns about putting the generated classes.xml file inside the src/java directory. I’d rather not mix generated files with manually edited ones. What about a new hyphenation directory in src/codegen? Thanks, Vincent > Adrian. > > Jeremias Maerki wrote: >> Uhm, Simon, this change uses tons of Java 1.5 features.
