Friendly reminder guys,
We're still on a minimum version of java 5, so don't use any API methods
that only exist in Java 6, not Java 5,
such as String.isEmpty().

What?!?!
Are we to resort to physical violence just because of the use of a Java 6
methods?
Surely we need to adhere to a 3 strike rule: 3 hints and then a hit?

Hi Geoffrey,
You might want to enforce this automatically by adding the maven animal
sniffer plugin to Drools' POMs.

Yea, or get hudson to build with JDK 5 (which is probably easier and
just as less likely to stop people commit them, but at least we catch
them faster).
The real problem is that our guvnor modeshape connector only builds with
jdk 6.
Although the latest modeshape might run with JDK 5 again, I 'd have to
check.
Secretly I am hoping we can reopen the "switch to JDK 6 for drools 6"
discussion :)
It's been almost a year since we had a "switch to JDK 6" discussion.

+1 on moving to JDK 6 (if possible). We can easily avoid using the
String.isEmpty method, but there are other things, like, from my point of
view, the possibility to invoke the javac compiler directly from the code,
that could be very handy in a near future.

+1 from me – Java 5 End of Life was October 2009 so it hasn’t been officially support by
sun/oracle for over 2 years now!
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/eol-135779.html
In fact looking at that Java 6 has now been released for 5 years and is due in 6 months
time to be EOL’d itself!
