So retroweaver or retrotranslator then, bytecode manipulation. Many commercial software companies take the realistic view of a 1.3 or 1.4 codebase compiled to 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, and 1.6. The reality is many large corporate shops are tied to older versions of the JDK, even though you may not understand or be a part of that world it is still fact. -----Original Message----- From: Andreas Lehmkühler [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, January 31, 2014 8:38 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [ANNOUNCE] Apache PDFBox 1.8.4 released

I don't like discussions about useful and non-useful versions of the JDK, but 1.4.2? Are you serious? That's not just old, it's ancient? To answer your questions, I'm not aware of any backport. Just for your interest, PDFBox 2.0.0 will rely on JDK 1.6.0 as minumum java version. > -----Original Message----- > From: Andreas Lehmkuehler [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Friday, January 31, 2014 12:25 AM > > Release Notes -- Apache PDFBox -- Version 1.8.4 BR Andreas Lehmkühler
