The 1.4 vm seems to run 1.3 classes fine, and even in this case I only compiled this one file and patched the jar. If I had built with 1.4(javac) and tried to run with 1.3(vm) then it would make more sense to me. I'm still a bit puzzled, maybe it's a bug in the 1.4 vm that will be resolved in the final version.
Thanks for all the help, and now that it's working ... It kicks butt !!!!! Bye. > -----Original Message----- > From: Javier S.
