jdk 1.5.0 : javac : -target option?! Only 1.5 bytecode version is supported

Hi,What has hapend to javac in jdk 1.5? It is able to compile just 1.5 bytecode version. You'll get "javac: target release 1.x conflicts with default source release 1.5" (where x < 5) message otherwise. No source is compiled. ?!

There is also a -source option which defaults (in the final release) to 5.You have to set that also, as version 5 source isn't compatible with any earlier version.

If you are using the -source and -target flags with javac, most likely you should also be setting -bootclasspath.

Read the javac man page for your platform (Unix or Windows), available here:
