Description evzhy 2005-07-17 07:03:46 UTC 
I want to use java 1.5 feature such as generic in my j2me game programming.
But the source version is set to 1.3 and target 1.1 in the ant file default.
I had to change them, so I had to edit the build.xml's task
I edit the task pre-compile to change the ${javac.source}, but it has no function.
Why I can not change it easy in the properties of project by GUI way? 
I hope I can easy change any parameter of javac! not by edit the ant script!

As far as neither CLDC 1.0 nor CLDC 1.1 supports 1.4 and1.5 language features,
setting those source levels have no sense because application will not run at
all. -source 1.3 -target 1.1 is the only safe to provide runnable code for all
J2ME capable phones.
Note: you can use only -source 1.5 -target 1.5 or -source 1.4 -target 1.4, NOT
i.e. -source 1.5 -target 1.1
