Maxim Zinal created AMQ-3984:
--------------------------------
Summary: ActiveMQ is incompatible with JDK 1.5
Key: AMQ-3984
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-3984
Project: ActiveMQ
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Broker, Message Store
Affects Versions: 5.6.0
Environment: Debian/GNU Linux 6.0
Reporter: Maxim Zinal
Priority: Minor
ActiveMQ documentation claims to support Java 5, which is not currently true:
at least JDK 6 is required to build and run ActiveMQ 5.6.0.
I was not able to build ActiveMQ with Sun JDK 1.5, because build fails on
KahaDB with the following error message:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal
org.apache.felix:maven-bundle-plugin:2.3.5:bundle (default-bundle) on project
kahadb: Execution default-bundle of goal
org.apache.felix:maven-bundle-plugin:2.3.5:bundle failed: An API
incompatibility was encountered while executing
org.apache.felix:maven-bundle-plugin:2.3.5:bundle: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:
java.lang.String.getBytes(Ljava/nio/charset/Charset;)[B
I was able to run ActiveMQ broker under IBM JDK 5 (in WebSphere Application
Server 6.1 environment) after applying some code changes and rebuilding
ActiveMQ with Oracle JDK 7 (in compatibility mode, with "-source 1.5 -target
1.5" options).
