eh, any app that maintains compatibility with jdks < 7 can't use the WatchService and it's low level system specific API, which includes buttload of enterprise app and but the most recents IDE that are starting to drop jdk 6 support.
then there is indeed the PEBCAK as you say, but you can't really blame people that knows the proper solutions if they have weird jdk to support.
- pjmlp 11y agoJust two examples of such PEBCAK quality: - Using a for loop to copy array contents instead of System.arraycopy() - Doing everything on the main thread in Swing There are plenty more that I can list and they never have anything to do with JDK versions.
- pron 11y agoThat problem was solved in the JDK five years ago. If you're required to support a ten-year-old, EOL-ed platform because people don't upgrade, that's still not the JVM's fault...
