Hi, does your tomcat instance really use JRE 1.6 ? You can easily check in the manager app.
Anyway I would suggest to always use -source 1.4 -target 1.4 for older Classes, because you avoid all possible syntax problems. Other combinations of source/target could be tested if you suspect a javac bug. Maybe this helps R. Am Dienstag, 13.
