Question

are there any tool that do this kind of thing ??
thanks,

Answer 1

If you use Eclipse, you can reset the compiler options. This works better than just using "-target 1.4", because not only will the class files be backwards compatible, but Eclipse will show you error indicators for all lines of source code that are not compatible.
