Can I use these with Eclipse GCJ ? gcj does not yet include 1.5-level features. GNU Classpath has work towards this [1] and gcjx [2] is a work-in-progress new frontend for gcj with 1.5-level support (I could be wrong with some terminology here so please forgive me if I am). One of the goals of Eclipse 3.1 is 1.5-level support. This includes the compiler, ecj, which is what we (Fedora) use as our bytecode compiler. If you are not running on a 1.5-level JVM, however, you will not be able to take advantage of these features. So the short answer: no, you can't use java 1.5-level features at runtime with our stock setup. You could always build and install Sun's 1.5 JDK (as per previous messages on this list and others) and set it as your java and javac alternatives. Andrew
