I use Java 1.4.2x for "real" work. Of course, the Dell I have with
WebObjects 4.0.1 installed (you know, the one with the actual *real*
software) has Java 1.1.6 installed ... I've never even tried to use
Cayenne with that! :-)
I'd be +1 for Cayenne < 1.2 being compatible with Java 1.3.x+ and
Cayenne >= 1.2 being compatible with Java 1.4.x+. I'm not yet ready to
commit to Java 1.5 (secretly hoping for a resurgence of Objective-C).

Subject: Fwd: Poll: JDK 1.3 support
Hi folks,
This discussion started on cayenne-devel, but as Mike Kienenberger
pointed out, this is of interest to all users, so I am transferring
it here. So far the consensus was that Cayenne 1.1.x should maintain
JDK 1.3 compatibility for as long as needed, while 1.2 should go JDK
1.4 all the way.
The decision has not been made yet. Any comments?
Andrus
