iControl 11.3 not working with Java 1.5

The 11.3 Java iControl binary distribution is not working on my Java 1.5 system. I'm getting an error which reads "java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: (iControl/Interfaces) bad major version at offset=6"

 

The 11.1 iControl.jar worked for me previously, but it seems as if the iControl.jar in the lib/JDK1.5 was built using java 1.6. Am I right, or is there something else going on?

    The JDK1.5/iControl.jar looks like it's not the correct one. I'm rebuilding right now with 1.5 and will repost the download when it's done. I'll post a reply to this thread when it's available.

    Ok, I got the build updated on DC. The binary package contains the 1.5 and 1.6 libs. The iControl.jar for 1.5 should be this:

    Here's the direct link to the download:

    Not sure what happened but the build packaging had a problem and that library was an older build.

     

     

    Thanks for the heads up and sorry for the mixup. Let me know if that library does or does not work.
