Would anyone happen to know why the platform-debug plugins have an execution environment of J2SE 1.4? I am beginning work on porting the Console view to a pure e4 MPart and ran into some compile errors relating to the J2SE 1.4 requirement. I can work around these issues, however since I am doing some work here anyways, I wasn't sure if this was something that should be updated. (say to 1.5 or 1.6)

Unless I am missing something (which I might be) there are relatively few code changes necessary to update the execution environment. All of the changes I found deal with simple casting errors (several of Boolean val = (Boolean) someString;). IIRC, in all, the changes affected ~10 total lines of code.

Is this something that should be looked into?

Thanks,
