Are there plans to support a Java 1.5 SDK?

Question

I am having trouble compiling the sample search program at http://code.google.com/p/splunk-java-sdk/. Seems like splunk2.jar is compiled with 1.6 and my java is 1.5. Is there a 1.5 splunk.jar somewhere? I don’t see it on the download site.

compile:

[javac] Compiling 1 source file to C:\test\build\classes

[javac] C:\test\src\java\com...\SplunkClientTest.java:5: cannot access com.splunk.sdk4x.SplunkClient 

[javac] bad class file: C:\test\lib\splunk2.jar(com/splunk/sdk4x/SplunkClient.class) [javac] class file has wrong version 50.0, should be 49.0 

[javac] Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the classpath. 

[javac] import com.splunk.sdk4x.SplunkClient; 

[javac] ^ 

[javac] 1 error

BUILD FAILED C:\test\build.xml:78: Compile failed; see the compiler error output for details.

Thank you for your interest in Java SDK. Unfortunately we don't have a build for 1.5 SDK yet, but we will make sure the next release is compatible with it. Meanwhile you can checkout the code from the svn repository and build the jar file with the SDK you're currently using.

Note that Java 1.5 JDK/SDK (aka Java SE 5.0) reached end-of-life in November of 2009, and 1.6 has been available and supported for at least two or three years on most Operating system and J2EE application servers. It might not be a terrible idea to update to 1.6 for new code.
