It's a non-issue comparing to the real issue: 1. Compiling with JDK1.4 against JDK1.4's rt.jar gives incompatible with 1.3 code (IIRC, StringBuffer.append() issue) 2. Compiling with JDK1.4 against JDK1.3's rt.jar gives incompatible with 1.4 code (JDBC 3.0 is not in JDK1.3) Where is the exit from this loop? Will compilation with JDK1.4 against JDK1.3's rt.jar but with JDBC 3.0 in front of it help?
