David Lloyd commented on LOGTOOL-44:
------------------------------------

Simplest solution - get rid of @Override.  It's somewhat useful from a troubleshooting perspective but I think it causes more problems than it solves, in this case.

> The annotation processor adds the {{@java.lang.Override}} annotation to the methods of generated log or message bundle classes. For methods implementing interface methods this is allowed only in Java 6 and above, while in Java 5 {{@Override}} is only allowed for methods overriding methods from superclasses.
> Therefore compilation of the generated classes fails using Java 5. To address this issue, the annotation should be added conditionally based on the current source level.
