is it possible to cross compile the files (1.3 version) in JDK1.5 environment..
Kindly suggest me
Java 1.3 is long dead; it doesn't even smell funny anymore. There were lots of enhancements in 1.5 that didn't exist in 1.3 (generics, enhanced for loop, wrappers for the primitives, a lot of collection stuff etc.) so they can't be compiled to version 1.3. You either have to work around those enhancements or forget all about it.
kind regards,
