which Java version?

[Steve Vinoski <vi...@iona.com>]

Does Qpid mandate Java 5? The reason I ask is that I had some code  
checking turned on in my maven work and saw a ton of warnings about  
unchecked calls to collections classes. If we mandate 1.5, should we  
turn on such checking so we can make the code cleaner?

I agree we should make a firm decision and either enforce 1.4 or fully 
exploit 1.5. Originally the client was developed with a view to 
supporting 1.4 - I *believe* that it may now have one or two small 
dependencies on 1.5 though I can't be sure that I remember correctly.

I'm in favour of simply stating support for 1.5 too.

Hi Carl, I feel like we need to nail this down firmer than that. If 
we want to support clients at 1.4, for example, then that's a stake 
in the ground that has to be enforced by all qpid developers as it 
has a variety of implications on the implementation. We'd have to 
make sure that any parts of the code required for clients always 
remained at 1.4 and used only 1.4-compatible versions of underlying 
libraries, which implies that the qpid common code all has to be 1.4 
as well.

Personally, I think we should just say 1.5 across the board.

Java 1.5 or 1.6 for broker.

For clients 1.4 might be good to also support.
