Description Dani Megert CLA 2011-04-11 02:49:59 EDT 
HEAD.

The 'Java Compiler' preference/property page is misleading when a 'JavaSE-1.7' EE is used on a project: it says that we use the compliance from the EE but we don't support 1.7 compliance. Though we show '1.6' below this can be misleading, especially when one creates a new Java projects and selects 'JavaSE-1.7'.

We should show a warning on that page and also on the new Java project wizard.
