[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBREM-855) Update build.xml to allow jdk 1.5 compiler to target JVM version 1.4

[Ron Sigal (JIRA)]

Ron Sigal commented on JBREM-855:
---------------------------------

Added two properties to build.xml:  compile.source and compile.target.  They are used by the <javac> task in the "compile" and "tests.compile" targets.

They both default to ${ant.java.version}, i.e., to the JVM version detected by ant.  The default value can be overridden on the command line:

   ant -Dcompile.source=1.4 -Dcompile.target=1.4 jars

> Fernando has suggested updating build.xml so that the *-brew scripts can use the jdk 1.5 compiler to generate code that is compatible with a 1.4 JVM.  This way we have a single version of jboss-remoting.jar in the repository which is (1) appropriate in the current versions of the Application Server, which are compiled with jdk 1.5, and (2) usable in a standalone context by clients built with a jdk 1.4 compiler.
> The changes should be applied to the following branches:
>    - remoting_2_2_0_GA (for community AS)
>    - remoting_2_2_2_GA_CP (for EAP 4.2 and 4.3)
>    - remoting_2_x (for Remoting 2.4.0)
