[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of JBoss Portal] - Re: Java 5 migration strategy

[bdaw]

Actually I don't see the big problem here:
- we don't need to upgrade whole codebase to the java 5 syntax (time consuming + branch sync issues)
- when you bug fix you code with backport (svn merge) in mind so probably won't use new syntax anywa...
- when you add new features you change/refactor a lot so such part can't be backported easily, and probably isn't supposed to be backported at all....

So lets naturally use java 5 in trunk for new stuff and during refactorings, and don't upgrade old code "just to".
