macOS Java question

[GilGrissom]

Only use the Java 1.5 compiler if you're using Java 1.5 specific language features or library classes or methods. Always try to use the lowest Java version possible, that can accomodate what you need, for greater portability. That might mean using Java 1.3 in some instances.

Ah yes...I know. Thanks. Unfortunately I need 1.5, as that is the version we use in my course at uni and the Scanner class etc are much different and do not work on older versions. I look forward to 1.5 being made the standard, or a way to make it the standard on my PB!!

package javax.sing does not exist

Hmmm...My hopes of having a seemless compile on my mac aren't turning out as simple as I'd hoped!

Correct me if I'm wrong but there should be nothing wrong with this in 1.5 (on Windows version anyway).

package javax.sing does not exist
import javax.sing.JOptionPane;

Is it called something else in this version??!! (or more likely me trying to do something totally stupid!)...sorry if I'm pushing the limit of this thread!

You are missing a w in the import declaration. It is
import javax.swing.JOptionPane not import javax.sing.JOptionPane

import javax.swing.JOptionPane not import javax.sing.JOptionPane

It's depends on if he's using JSR 400 Accessibility: Musical human interfacing

Apparently they've come a long way debugging the RAP interface, but efforts are being hampered by PETA picketting their dolphin test bed.

As if by magic!...

I appologise for that utter stupid question. I'm always doing it with java! Ah well, I can only hope to reach your standards! Onwards and upwards!

Thanks for you help! It is appreciated for this utter java prat!
