Description

« Hide

I have a project with a target language level : 1.4, and is using a JDK 1.4 (Websphere 5.1 bundled jdk).
This project uses some IDEA GUI forms
It compiles and runs fine using the IDE run configurations.

I then wanted to deliver it, and generated an ant build using "BuildMenu>generate ant build".

when i ran that script, the javac2 task didn't include the "source=1.4" attribute, which caused the script to fail as my project classes use some assertions

As far as I know when Ant is building with JDK 1.4 the source level should default to 1.4 too and it's not necessary to specify it. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Well it seems not, as i had to manually add the "source" attribute to the javac2 task.
Or at least not for IBM JDK

Are you sure that 1.4 language level is chosen in Settings | Modules | Language Level for Project?

Yes I am.
(BTW i upgraded to 5383 today and the same behavior occurs).

If the project language level was not 1.4, then it would not compile (as some classes have assertions).

I just tested to generate the build with no support for IDEA UI forms, and the same problem occurs : the javac task does not have the required attribute source=1.4.
This is using JDK 1.4.2_12 from Sun this time.

here is a sample simple project

uses a 1.4 JDK
sourcelevel 1.4
single class with an assert
compiles ok uising IDE
generated ant build (no support for UI here) does not run
