Updates to Java On-Line Compiler

[Andrew Thompson]

I have improved the Java On-Line Compiler
at.. http://www.physci.org/javac.jsp

The java on-line compiler will now help
sort out compatibility problems for 1.1
and 1.3 JVM's. I have added both jars
to the site so we can -bootclasspath
against them.

I would appreciate some testing.
I have not even managed to test
the 1.3 stuff yet..

*Sorry* for my previous nonsense post. I hit the send-buttom before I
pasted in my text!


The CardTest example is not compilable with
the settings
-target 1.3
-bootclasspath 1.3

...../CardTest.java:21: cannot resolve symbol
symbol : variable YELLOW
location: class java.awt.Color
addPanel(Color.YELLOW, "First");
^
...../CardTest.java:22: cannot resolve symbol
symbol : variable GREEN
location: class java.awt.Color
addPanel(Color.GREEN, "Second");
^
...../CardTest.java:23: cannot resolve symbol
symbol : variable MAGENTA
location: class java.awt.Color
addPanel(Color.MAGENTA, "Third");

...../CardTest.java:24: cannot resolve symbol

location: class java.awt.Color
addPanel(Color.CYAN, "Fourth");

Yeah. Scratches head. I noticed they were
not working with the 1.1 classes, but hadn't
seen it with 1.3...

[ I tried at home with debugging on.. it is
definitely testing against the 1.3 rt.jar ]

Brings us to the same question as the
undocumented introduction of
BufferedImage in 1.2. When were
the Color constants introduced?

I would be astounded to find the
Color.CONSTANTS were
introduced in 1.4...

Color.YELLOW, Color.GREEN, etc were indeed introduced in 1.4
(but without any "@since" doc-comment),
whereas Color.yellow, etc exist from the early 1.0

Sounds like the version checker might
come in _very_ handy if these results
are right [ read: 'if I have not made a
monumental logic or coding error'.. ]
