Could always use the generics compiler in source generation mode - if you give the compiler the "-s" flag, it generates source files instead of class files. I believe that this is what Sun has been using for years to compile the java compiler itself
I'm pretty sure the generated source is 1.2 compatible (asserts are translated, and I don't think there were any new language constructs introduced in 1.3)?
The Source-to-source output preserves doc comments, so you can run xdoclet before or after. I think other comments get stripped though.
What I'm not sure about is whether the unmodified compiler can run on 1.3 as distributed (I don't have 1.3 on my laptop right now). If not, one could always cross-compile in a 1.4 environment.
Is the goal to be able to run hibernate under 1.3, or is it also to be able to build it? All of the 1.3-only systems around here are production systems (or test replicas thereof).
I mean, how can you develop on a system that won't run IntelliJ? ;-)
