In the JUMP launcher we can look at the SystemProperty java.specification.version to make sure it is >= 1.5 if not we display a window that says you must have version 1.5 or greater and maybe provide a clickable link to the Java site. Unfortunately if we compile that class with 1.5 they won't even get that far.
