Maxim Zinal commented on AMQ-3984:
----------------------------------
At least the following documents state that ActiveMQ is targeted towards JDK
1.5:
http://activemq.apache.org/what-platforms-does-activemq-support.html
http://activemq.apache.org/can-i-use-activemq-5x-or-later-on-java-14.html
I also could not find anywhere which was the last ActiveMQ release to support
JDK 1.5.
> ActiveMQ is incompatible with JDK 1.5

> 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).
