(I am new to this list so please forgive me if this was already answered.)
We are developing a java applet and recently switched from make to ant as building tool. The applet needs to be compatible with vanilla w2k/ie5 installations, which means that the compiled java classes needs to be compatible with the jvm 1.1.x.
What I am trying to do is:
<target name="compile" depends="init" description="compiles all source files">
<javac
srcdir="${src}"
destdir="${classes}"
excludes="**/bak/,**/backup/"
compiler= "classic"
>
<classpath><path refid="classpath.path"/></classpath>
</javac>
</target>
but this gives:
[javac] This version of java does not support the classic compiler; upgrading to modern
and leads to classes not runnable in ie5 on w2k. This happens on all MacOS X, Sparc Solaris and i686 Linux platforms all running java 1.4.1_01.
What am I doing wrong here? I searched the mailing list archives but couldn't find any relevant information there.
Thanks for any help! Chris.
