[mdt-ocl.dev] Java Versions

Hi

Recent cross-project-dev traffic highlighted a decision to move to Java 6 only for aggregation builds.

Checking http://www.eclipse.org/projects/project-plan.php?projectid=eclipse#target_environments it seems that Java 6 is preferred but other things may work.

Currently I develop with Java 5 with Java 5 compatibility. I presume this is what other team members do too.

Should we move to:

Develop with Java 6, with Java 5 compatibility
Develop with Java 6, with Java 6 compatibility

Should we move now or after Indigo?

NB. Our current 5 + 5 gives us compatibility warnings with a JDT reflective debug plugin.

I feel that if the platform expects perhaps only Java 6 to be ok, we should be using Java 6 for development.

    Regards

        Ed
