I am not sure if this is the correct place to post my issue or not.
But I am desperate to get an answer, please let me know if someone can help.

Here I go…I am using MyEclipse 6.01 & JDK1.5.

If I force MyEclipse to use 1.4 compiler, and I use some JDK 1.5 provided features in my code,i.e.methods like getGenericType,MyEclipse does not show compile time errors.

PS : I am forcing MyEclipse6.02 to use JDK1.4 compiler by
Windows->Preferences->Java->Compiler->Comipler compliance leve 1.4

But If I try to compile the code outside of MyEclipse,It throws compile errors for trying to compile JDK1.5 features on JDK1.4.

Could anyone please let me know,why it is happening with the MyEclipse?

Are you working on a Java EE 5 web project or some other project?

[romsdoingproject]

I am using J2EE 1.4

Can you right click on your project and go to Properties > Java Complier and check the complier compliance level for your project. What level is selected in the dropdown ?

Also, please switch to a new workspace (FIle > Switch Workspace >Temp), create a new J2EE 1.4 project with JDK compliance 1.4 and check if the issue gets resolved.

[romsdoingproject]

Compiler compliance level is 1.4.
The behavior of compiling is same even if it is 5.0 or 1.4.It compiles JDK 1.5 features.

Here is the sample code :
import java.util.ArrayList;

public class test5feature {

Object objA = new A();
Class c = objA.getClass();

java.lang.reflect.Field [] field1 = c.getDeclaredFields();

public static void main(String [] args){
method1();
}
private static void method1(){
test5feature obj = new test5feature();
if(obj.field1[0].getGenericType().equals(“String”)){
System.out.println(“It’s string type”);
}
}
}
class A {
private String data1 = null;
private ArrayList data2 = null;
}

Right Click on your project and go to Build Path > Java Build Path > Libraries and remove the Java EE 5 libraries. Now go to Add Library > MyEclipse Libraries > J2EE 1.4 libs. Now does it work the way you want ?

[romsdoingproject]

I found no JAVA EE 5 Libraries in the Java build path for my project.It has J2EE 1.4 Libraries & JRE System library.

Could anyone please help me on this?I am still trying to find it out why this is happening.
