java.util.Calendar compilation problems

[PCSAARON]

I am trying to compile a project that was compiled in a newer versin of java. But want to compile it with an older version since the newer version of Java is TOO slow with the application. I get this error when compiling...

cannot resolve symbol
symbol: method compareTo (java.util.Calendar)
location: class java.util.Calendar
int test = calednar_one.compareTo(calendar_two);


The java.util.Calendar is probably an older version and doesn't have compareTo? Can anyone help me figure out a way to update the java.util.Calendar or get a similar method?

Thanks.

Calendar.CompareTo() was introduced in 1.5, so it will not compile in any earlier JDK version.

I don't know what compareTo does but I imagina you can compare the results of getTimeInMillis() from both.

Btw, I thoguht Tiger was quicker than the older versions, but I see it's not always true.

Cheers,
