Unit test fail with JDK7 about javahamcrest HOT 10 CLOSED

The released Hamcrest jars should work fine in Java 7, but we currently perform release builds (and tests) with Java 6.

I happily build and test Hamcrest in Open JDK 7 (as does our travis CI build https://travis-ci.org/hamcrest/JavaHamcrest) so I'm not immediately sure why it isn't working for you.

OK I'll try to get a thorough look at this and let you know.

Thank you, that's great. I await with interest, and will be happy to help fix anything you find.

I observed the same compilation error on Windows 7 with Oracle JDK 1.7.0_17. I just ran ant after extracting the source archive of Hamcrest 1.3. Switching to Java 6 fixed the issue.

I've just spent half an hour trying to reproduce this problem, and couldn't.

Then I re-read the post, and I realised what's going on.

Please can you confirm exactly which hamcrest code you are trying to build with JDK 7? The trunk version works fine, but older versions (including the tagged 1.3 codebase) will not.

Thank you for checking Tom. I confirm it works on the trunk.

I was trying to run 1.3 tests. I guess I wil need to wait for the next release then.

Yes. Hamcrest 1.3 will not build with Java 7. It really is time for the next release.
