JDK6 ? #130

Closed cexbrayat closed 12 years ago

cexbrayat commented 12 years ago

Even if I'd like to use jdk7 everywhere, I can't assume it will be the case for my current project. So I took a look at what needed to be changed to have resthub jdk6 compatibility : it appears to be nearly nothing.

I would understand if you want to remain jdk7 only, but if that's not the case, consider the current PR.

I am fine with having Spring Stack compatible with JDK6, and keeping archetypes and documentation pushing for JDK7 usage.

Fine by me. We only use JDK7 syntax in the framework for diamond operator and multi-catch anyway.

Agree with @sdeleuze , we still need to push JDK7 in the archetypes - I'm pretty sure we'll need JDK7 as a requirement during the 2.x versions.

cexbrayat commented 12 years ago

Great! My 2 cents : I think JDK7 as a requirement tend to be a limitation for people who don't have the hand on the run environment. That's the first thing on the doc, and I've already heard : "jdk7 that's dead for us...".

That's a good thing to push it, but that shouldn't be mandatory.

I agree. I sent a pullrequest with related documentation update : https://github.com/resthub/resthub.org/pull/62
