That's why I think it shouldn't be committed. The Java baseline in OpenOffice is still 1.5 (both source and target) and there are no plans to change this, so a proper fix would be making the code compile with JDK7 while generating binaries that run in 1.5. I've raised this concern several times (for example http://markmail.org/message/imckfah34tsfhfrs ) but people seems to misunderstand it, and still talk about "dropping java6" (whatever that could mean). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
