[java] Developping for 1.1.x

Cedric · 2002-11-13T03:02:42

I''m sure that this has already been answered, but... you know. Anyway, I want to do an applet for the largest common denominator, so it must be 1.1.x-friendly. 1. If I use the Java 1.4.0 SDK, and never use any class designed for Java 1.2 and up, is it safe? 2. How do I know the version of Java that supports a given class? Sometimes, in the SDK, there is a small note in the description of a function "Since 1.2", but I''ve never seen such note for a whole class. 3. If I do have to download the old SDK, could anyone tell me which one it is exactly? Sun has a pretty big list of 1.1.x SDK. 4. While I''m at it, are there two parallel version numbers for Java? One for the actual Java technology, and one for the SDK? Could it be that I''m working on the Java 2 platform, with the 1.4.0 SDK? This has always been confusing to me. Thank you, Cédric

Hi,

Cedricl: I meant any gui-like features (ingame menus, dialog boxes, text areas and similar) that aren't done using AWT or Swing. And even if graphics is a part of the java.awt package, when mentioning AWT, then I have other things in mind - the GUI components, the event model and the like.
