[antlr-interest] can ANTLR tool itself use 1.5?

Tue Apr 3 02:59:06 PDT 2007

Hi,

I'm thinking of using generics for ANTLR internals.  The generated  
code will be 1.4 compatible, but the version number will be wrong for  
VM.  So, probably still 1.5 would be required to run antlr.  Do I  
need to keep 1.4 compatible or is it ok to go to 1.5 nowadays do you  
think?

For now, i can keep the runtime 1.4 compatible, however.

Thanks,
Ter

It's ok for me, it makes code cleaner. At our side we even currently use 1.5 in the generated grammars. We make them backward compatible by using RetroTranslator.
