Whoops... I meant: requiring Java 1.5 for OFBiz? (and making it so it
won't run on Java 1.4)
Well, it depends on which features one plans on using.
If possible, try on 1.4. There are some tool sets that provide 1.5
like
features, but can work on a 1.4 vm. One that I am familiar with is
the
util.concurrent stuff, replacing java.util.concurrent.
This is a good point and basically what we have been doing to date,
but in general it isn't something we have total control of. As other
libraries move to requiring 1.5 we'll have to require it as well in
order to update those libraries.
