I want to use the new compiler for new work and I tried using the -target and -source options but I've run into a snag. JList is now JList and the compiler issues a warning even with -source set to 1.6. Is that to be expected or what? I don't think using the type specification with JList would compile with a 1.6 compiler. Do I just need to ignore the warning and press on? And JComboBox too I found. Thanks, -- Knute Johnson
