Hi Murray

Looks like Eclipse has decided to use 1.4 instead of 5.0 when executing your build.xml. Maybe Ant is picking up the default compiler for your system, rather than the project specific one. I often find that Eclipse can get very confused (as they say in the UK "get its knickers in a twist") and you might find a project 'clean' and restarting Eclipse may be helpful. Or not! Good luck.

Regards

Alan Chaney

Hi, managed to fix this on my own.

In Eclipse there is a setting in Windows | Preferences... under Java |
Compiler indicating the compiler compliance level, mine was set to 1.4 and
is now changed to 5.0 - this seems to have resolved the problem with the
"@Persist".

I then right mouse on the project's "build.xml" and run this.

The output from my build creates further errors:


Buildfile: *C:\TapestryTutorial\directlink\build.xml

It looks as though my ant build isn't picking up the annotations. (I haven't
used annotations before so I'm not sure what to do apart from check the
compiler compliance for the build....how do I do that?)

Anybody....hhheeeellllllppppp...

Cheers
