Hi Adrian, Please excuse this slight hijack of the topic, but there have been mentions of eventually back-porting the new and beautiful code to work against Java5. Do you have any feelings on how realistic that idea is ? My guess is that it's unlikely to happen for all of the usual, real world reasons.
I ask as someone who will probably be working with Java5 for some time yet. cheers Michael 2008/12/19 Adrian Custer <[email protected]>: > Hello, > > Jody has essentially answered you already but I'll add my take which may > flesh out the explanation. > > The style specification evolved greatly from its earlier incarnation > which involved a fairly extensive re-design of the system in place. > During that work the author of the new style system decided to follow > the lead of another developer who was starting a major cleanup effort of > the whole library.
