	Correct, JDK 1.6 is my default compiler, and because of the API differences, compiling with, say, JDK 1.4 flags appears to be insufficient to get it to compile under 1.6.
	
	I guess I'll set up a batch file that sets a new JAVA_HOME before calling nano-persistence's compilation.
	
	Thanks for the reply!

Sorry, that I have to ask again to clear this: Does the code compile with JDK 1.4 and not longer with JDK 6?

Nevertheless, all our code is working with JDK 1.4 and I am really -1 about any code that needs JDK 6/5 exclusively. Currently anything in nanocompiler must be compilable with JDK 1.4. If it is not compilable with JDK 6 we must find a way to satisfy both JDKs, but JDK 1.4 is still the minimal denominator. Therefore I also asked on the nanowar issue with the JSF support.
