Description Lars Vogel CLA 2014-02-11 18:09:44 EST 
Currently our org.eclipse.e4.ui.* bundles are based on Java 1.5. I suggest to move them to Java 1.6 to be able to use Java 1.6 language features as for example @Override for interfaces.

I see similar efforts for JDT in Bug 421017 and Bug 426979. Also the move from Java 1.5 to 1.6 does not seem to introduce (lots) of new warnings.
