Compiling fails on JDK 1.3
I tried a build on JDK 1.3/WinXP-SP2, but that failed.
The constructor FileOutputStream(File, boolean) was added in JDK 1.4.

Understood, so I'll change the FAQ.

The issue was that ant 1.7.0 could not be used with jdk1.2. This was found
after the release of 1.7.0, and was due to the fact that the java5
javac compiler
is unable to generate correct bytecode for 1.2. - so the breaking change
is in Ant 1.7.0.

I am in the middle of fixing that, actually. It's
just that it's wrapped up with some new changes I have
pending.

I think it is too much work for getting JDK 1.3 compliance if we want to
get rid off 1.3. And Trunk is the parent of 1.7.2/1.8. If the vote
wouldnt pass,
I could investigate some time.

absolutely, and we probably should have listed it as a breaking change
in Ant 1.7.1
> Like FAQ?
Will do, alongside a comment that we don't really test old Java
releases and only ensure that Ant compiles there.
I'll also start a different thread for the Java version required by
trunk. Do you want to fix the JDK 1.3 issues in trunk (I don't have a
1.3 JDK around anymore and am too lazy to install one right now) or
should we wait for the thread's outcome?

AW: Compiling fails on JDK 1.3
Posted by Ja...@rzf.fin-nrw.de.
I found the vote that we dropped Java 1.2
http://marc.info/?l=ant-dev&m=117794737813795&w=2
I only found a thread about discussing dropping 1.3
http://marc.info/?l=ant-dev&m=120039266628773&w=2
but no vote...
Should we post these info in a more prominent place instead of a mailinglist-search?
Like FAQ?

Don't recall. Me, I'd go for Java 5+ on SVN_HEAD, because Java 5 has
been out there so long that sun are going to remove support for some
versions soon, and some of the language changes are pretty fundamental

Should be easy to fix, I'm just not sure whether it needs to be.
<http://ant.apache.org/faq.html#java-version> only talks about Java
1.1 and 1.2. I think we decided to make 1.7 require Java 1.3 and
trunk Java 1.4 or has 1.7 still been at 1.2 and we switched to Java
1.3 with trunk?
