[jira] Issue Comment Edited: (DERBY-3984) Separate out the small number of build targets which really require JDK1.4 features from the bulk of the targets which ought to compile cleanly against small device libraries

This patch is based on the first attempt at check-in for DERBY-3988...Could you please update it ?
The patch didn't apply cleanly to the current trunk (although it only had a problem with trunk/build.xml...and I was able to change that quite easily manually, or I could apply to revision 727106, but  I'd like us to be on the same level).

> It would be good to make jsr169 the default platform for most Derby build targets. This will allow the build to raise compile-time errors when a checkin violates the small-device contract. Only a small number of features (listed in DERBY-3966) really require JDK1.4. Something like the following may work:
> 1) Finish up DERBY-3966 so that java4compile.classpath defaults to an approximation of ${jdk14xmlSupport}: ${java15compile.classpath}
> 2) Make compile.classpath default to jsr169compile.classpath
> 3) Fortunately, jsr169compile.classpath itself already defaults to ${jsr169stubs}:${java14compile.classpath}
> 4) Change a (hopefully) small number of targets to use java14compile.classpath rather than compile.classpath
