Description

The OFBIZ version is apache-ofbiz-10.04

When I'm compiling the project with the embedded and using ant run-install run there is a error message

classes:
[javac16] Compiling 13 source files to C:_portable\PortableApps\apache-ofbiz-10.04\framework\security\build\classes

[javac16] 1 error

Changing to use JDK 6 works around this issue - however given that EOL for JDK6 is November 2012 (IE this year, already extended from July) this is not a long term solution.
