Description Olivier Thomann

Validate references to system library based on EE (J2SE-1.4, etc). A 1.4 project should not reference 1.5/1.6 methods/classes

Released for 3.5M4.
Darin, please verify.

I could successfully run the api tooling verification ant task and I opened the following bugs:
bug 255811 (core.contenttype),
bug 255814 (core.net),
bug 255815 (org.eclipse.equinox.p2.metadata.repository),
bug 255820 (org.eclipse.equinox.p2.publisher),
bug 255822 (org.eclipse.help),
bug 255829 (org.eclipse.jface),
bug 255836 (org.eclipse.ui.net),
bug 255849 (org.eclipse.ui.workbench).

osgi and swt are not listed as they have some special tricks at compile time that makes the validation inaccurate.

Subsequent issues found with this new features should go into new bug reports.
