Bug#845606: marked as done (The Bytecode Should Not Be Targeting Java 1.2)
Your message dated Wed, 18 Jan 2017 11:48:30 + with message-id and subject line Bug#845606: fixed in asm 5.2-2 has caused the Debian Bug report #845606, regarding The Bytecode Should Not Be Targeting Java 1.2 to be marked as done. This means that you claim that the problem has been dealt with. If this is not the case it is now your responsibility to reopen the Bug report if necessary, and/or fix the problem forthwith.

When I was building a package for Jack (Java Android Compiler Kit) which uses the generics code in ASM, it yielded the following errors: ``` /android-toolchain-jack/jill/src/com/android/jill/frontend/java/MethodBodyWriter.java:196: error: type Analyzer does not take parameters private final Analyzer analyzer; ^ ``` But apparently `org.objectweb.asm.tree.analysis.Analyzer` takes a type parameter. FYI, `MethodBodyWriter.java` can be found at [1]. So I suspected this was caused by the Java version of the bytecodes, and I found out that the classes in `asm-all.jar` is for Java 1.2. By observing the build scripts of ASM I found that it was the "shrinking" process [2] that changed the classes to Java 1.2 instead of 1.5 as indicated by `build.xml`. After I applied `-Dproduct.noshrink=true` to the build command, as the documentation suggests, Jack was successfully built with the resulting `asm-all.jar`. Therefore, I wish the maintainers of this package turn off the "shrinking" process. According to the ASM documentations [2], "shrinking" is merely for reducing JAR size, which is not necessary in this case.
