I think you are asking for trouble. Because you are most likely also going to be using different versions of Java too. I think you are going to end up spending too much time reviewing docs to know what is new and what isn't, if the API or functionality has changed, if you can or can 't use a certain function. This is doubly so if you use Wonder.

If you've got a spare week of time to kill converting and doing tons of testing to see if your app can do it, then I'd spend the time getting the production application running on 5.4.2 rather than spending it trying to make 5.2 run a 5.4 app.

In the end you are expending a bunch of effort up front _and_ ongoing to keep the production app on 5.2 and get nothing of value to show for it. If you go to 5.4 then you can actually use the new functionality and do some really cool new things instead of wasting time trying to figure out how to avoid new features.

Hello -

I was wondering... if I don't use anything new in 5.4 while developing for my deployed 5.2.4 will I encounter any problems?

I would like to start with 5.4 and beyond, but really like to lag releases in my production apps.

So, can I do this?

Thanks
