Hi, If you actually released Cobertura itself using Java7 without special configuration, then yes. The bytecode is not gonna be loadable by any jvm lower than the 7 version.
Btw, I just checked the bytecode of some class (PackageCoverage) of the jar that can be found in central, the class is actually having 0x33 => 51 value as major version (which is JDK7). Btw, if you're targetting java5, I'd advice you to use a JDK5 to help prevent any issue (those can be detected through some additional maven plugins, but I think it's better to see those as security more than something else if you don't depend on some upper jdk specificity). -- Baptiste 2013/6/26 Steven Christou <schristo...@gmail.com> > I am having some trouble getting the cobertura plugin to work in bamboo. > I released a new version of cobertura (version 2.0.1) which fixes a few > bugs for the maven plugin.
