... thanks for this. This is at least a statement. I search the web a long time now and haven't found anything.

javac -target 1.4 gives an error:

javac: target release 1.4 conflicts with default source release 1.5

Installed is this:
$ java -version
java version "1.5.0_07"

As I said it works with 1.4, ie. switching the complete environment with JAVA_HOME, etc. So I have to compile with 1.4, which is just as bad as -target 1.4 would probably be.

Anyway, thanks for the information. This helps a lot.
