I don't see any reason of scrapping compatibility with Java 1.5 at this point. It's a convenience for people to be able to deploy to platforms which do not necessarily have support for features introduced in new versions of Java. When we initially introduced the dependency on Java 1.5, it was not a decision taken lightly, but Java 1.5 was a quantum leap in terms of version updates, and has so many handy features (generics, varargs, enums, annotations to name a few) that we felt they outweighed any inconvenience caused by the fact that we standardized on 1.5 at a time when 1.4 was the most widely used version of Java. As far as I know, the same cannot be said for Java 1.6. So the question is: Why would you want to introduce a new dependency? And how does it relate to the Override-annotations? -- Eskil _______________________________________________ Qt-jambi-interest mailing list [email protected] http://lists.trolltech.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-jambi-interest
