Error while executing simple application with jdk1.5

[Joy Vergis]

Why I get the error(at the bottom) when i try to execute the Main class with jdk1.5 and no error occurs(executes successfully) when executing with jdk1.6. What steps have to be added to make this work with jdk1.5

Hello.java

package com.prasad1;

public class Hello {
	String name;

		public void setName(String name) {
		this.name = name;
	}
		
		public void getName() {
			System.out.println(name);
		}

}

main.java

import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.context.support.ClassPathXmlApplicationContext;


import com.prasad1.Hello;


public class Main {

	
	public static void main(String[] args) {
	
		ApplicationContext bn= new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("context.xml");
		Hello hello=(Hello)bn.getBean("hello");
		hello.getName();
	}

}

Context.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

</bean>
</beans>

Are you sure you got JDK 1.5? The Class.isMemberClass() is only available since JDK 1.5 ...

Hi,
Are you sure you are using separate compiled classes for each version when testing.
