David Reiss commented on THRIFT-482:
------------------------------------
Do you know why the compiler doesn't generate Java 5-compatible bytecode for
Java 5-compatible sources? Or does it just put "this is Java 6" in the
bytecode before even looking at what features are being used?
> build.xml does not specify a target version for compiled java classes

> Key: THRIFT-482
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-482
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Bug
> Environment: java version "1.6.0_13"
> Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_13-b03)
> Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 11.3-b02, mixed mode)
> Reporter: Jarret Falkner
> Attachments: java5_target.patch
>
>
> When building thrift in a java 6 environment, the packaged libthrift.jar
> contains classes for version 6 java. The compile target in build.xml should
> make java version 5 class files to maintain compatibility with earlier
> runtime environments.
> The attached patch should update build.xml with the desired behavior.
