I am using JBuilder 4 and Xj3D required JDK1.4 which JBuilder 4 does not recognize. Sun seems to change the file format from version 46.0 to 48.0 and JBuilder 4 could not accept the JDK 1.4. I looked up the Borland web site and they were arguing they were doing what they were supposed to be doing and nothing wrong with not considering file format changes revealed through the recent release of JDK1.4. It was astonishing. I am afraid Sun might need to share some responsibility for not enoughly emphasizing the emerging changes. But I am relieved now, since I found some ways to get around it. I have another upcomming issue to verify real quick and I will post it under a different mail subject for the case anybody happes to attemp to search the issue I encountered . I deeply appreciate your support. Kevin p.s. By the way, I also looked up your homepage and noticed you had resigned from W3C. I regret I feel like great loss. > -- > Justin Couch http://www.vlc.com.au/~justin/ > Java Architect & Bit Twiddler http://www.yumetech.com/ > Author, Java 3D FAQ Maintainer http://www.j3d.org/ > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > "Humanism is dead.
