I have Spring/Java App that is compiled with Compiler compliance level 1.5.
I have a new Linux setup where I downloaded Apache Tomcat 8.0.8.
I downloaded JDK 8u5.
I set the path in bash as follows:
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/jdk1.8.0_05/bin export PATH
Java -version reports:
java version "1.8.0_05" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_05-b13) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.5-b02, mixed mode)
And set in setnenv.sh (for Tomcat):
JDK_HOME=/home/userid/jdk1.8.0_05
When I deploy my WAR file I get below error. I think Tomcat doesn't seem to use the Java I installed. I have followed the setup instructions. PS: I also tried JRE instead of JDK and same issue.

The class that's throwing the exception is using this code to check for Java version:
static { javaVersion = System.getProperty("java.version"); // version String should look like "1.4.2_10" if (javaVersion.indexOf("1.7.") != -1) { majorJavaVersion = JAVA_17; } else if (javaVersion.indexOf("1.6.") != -1) { majorJavaVersion = JAVA_16; } else if (javaVersion.indexOf("1.5.") != -1) { majorJavaVersion = JAVA_15; } else { // else leave 1.4 as default (it's either 1.4 or unknown) majorJavaVersion = JAVA_14; } }
So, when Spring 2.5 was first released, the code didn't assume it will be run in a Java version that's later than 1.7. For Java 8 and beyond, the code above will assume default 1.4 version. Because of this, the annotations part will complain.
I think you either need to upgrade your Spring version or use Java 7. Spring 2.5 has been EOLed for quite some time now, anyway.
