[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-73?page=all ]

Andrew McIntyre updated DERBY-73:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: javacc40.diff

Patch with necessary changes for building with JavaCC 4.0. 
OPTIMIZE_TOKEN_MANAGER is no longer a supported option, and the generated code 
for mtGrammar includes a catch block for RuntimeException which uses a new 
method in RuntimeException introduced in JDK 1.4, so it became necessary to 
move the compilation of mtGrammar.java into the impl_tools_jdk14 target.

> Ability to compile under JDK1.5

> Compilation fails when using JDK1.5 due to
> 1) no specification of language level
> 2) use of "enum" as identifier
> The language issue results in the use of the new StringBuilder class for 
> string concatenation resulting in code that will not run on earlier JVMs.
> Dropping the langauge level will allow it to compile but warnings are 
> generated due to the use of "enum" as an identifier; with 1.5 this becomes a 
> reserved word
