Sheee...!!! You're right!!! I got this wrong!!! You _can_ compile with 1.5 and run with 1.4 _only_ if you don't use any 1.5 specific construct (like generics).
I never used any of those and so I never had to care about source and target versions. I remember an old article about Java 1.5 where they said it was possibile to use new construct because they're only "sintactic sugar", but it seems I remember wrong... Sorry for the confusion!!!
