Listener Code implementation : Annotation error

Hi Friends,

I am trying to write a listener code that triggers a message in the log file, whenever a page is activated. I have attached the code FY reference.

I have used Eclipse with JDK 1.6 as compiler and Maven to build the project. Build is successful and I have checked in the corresponding JAR file to CRXDE using vlt tool. When I click on build bundle, I get the error message below. Wherever I have used annotation, it shows errors.

"Syntax error, annotations are only available if source level is 5.0"

I wanted to try with Java 1.5 version. But some strange reason, the jdk 1.5 64 bit dump from oracle site itself is not working. So, I cannot install that version in my machine to check. I have tried in various machine but did not work.

Is AEM supported only with 1.5 java version ? Annotations are supported in 1,6 as well then why do you think I get that message. Please help.

Do I need to put all the JAR files under Maven dependencies in Eclispe's project structure ???

Let me know anything else is needed.

Which AEM Version you are using ?

What values do you have in you bundle pom.xml at this place

<configuration> <source>1.7</source> <target>1.7</target> <encoding>utf-8</encoding> </configuration>

Any special reason why you are not deploying jar using eclipse to crxde?

Only CQ 5.4, CQ 5.3 supports JDK 1.5

Thanks for the response.

I am using Adobe Experience Manager, Version 6.0.0 . 

Yes, I have 1.6 in POM as well. 

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
    <configuration>
      <source>1.6</source>
      <target>1.6</target>
      <debug>true</debug>
    </configuration>
  </plugin>

 

Thanks again
