Gunnar Morling commented on LOGTOOL-44:
---------------------------------------

There is another dependency to Java 1.6: The generated class {{Log_$logger}} makes use of the method [Arrays#copyOfRange()|http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/util/Arrays.html#copyOfRange%28int\[\],%20int,%20int%29], which was introduced in 1.6. [This post|http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7970486/porting-arrays-copyofrange-from-java-6-to-java-5] on SO suggests to simply copy the method from OpenJDK to backport the functionality to Java 5.

> 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.
