Description _ bharathch 2005-02-04 14:03:21 UTC 
The source editor indicates a "generics not
supported in source 1.4" in the tooltip even when
the platform used is J2SE 5 (stable release). Note
that the code compiles fine.It is only the
validation in the background that does not seem to
consider the fact that 1.5 is being used. A
screenshot is included.

Passing to editor.

Error annotations are provided by javacore. Reassigning.
Comment 4 Pavel Flaska 2005-02-10 13:07:33 UTC 
My steps how to reproduce issue:
1) run netbeans on jdk 1.4.2,
2) add 1.5 platform,
3) create project, set 1.5 platform.

If I ran netbeans on 1.5, it worked correctly. Seems to me that
SourceLevelQuery.getSourceLevel() does not return source level correctly.
Comment 5 Pavel Flaska 2005-02-10 13:41:52 UTC 
So the problem is, that you shouldn't only change platform! You have
to set also source-level. Goto project properties, select Sources
catagory and set the source-level combo to 1.5. This should help you.
