Description Petr Jiricka 2006-09-25 11:13:23 UTC 
NetBeans 5.5 build 20060925

1. Run the IDE with JDK 1.6
2. Register Sun Appserver 8.2
3. Run the New Web Project wizard
4. Uncheck "Set Source Level to 1.4", click Finish
5. Go to Project Properties => source level 1.6 is used

1.5 should be used, because most J2EE 1.4 servers don't run on JDK 6. Also, it
can be expected that customers who are conservative when choosing J2EE 1.4, will
also be conservative in choosing JDK 1.5 (rather than 1.6) to run the
application in.
