Thanks.

Why doesn't eclipse have a simple option:

or

To turn off specific syntax highlighting and the like?

Turn off anything within eclipse that was specific to a particular jdk
release.

You seem to be at odds with everyone else's post in this thread.

Numerous language changes in 1.5. Generics, for loop iterator enhancement,
Boxing/unboxing of primitives, yadda. These require a different javac.exe
and eclipse is bound to it's internal compiler's revs.
There should be a way to turn off the jdk revision specific stuff, hence
turn off its reliance upon the internal compiler, to just allow external
compilation. Visual Cafe for Java used to do just that, back when it was
alive before borland bought 'em. You had a crap load of fields to fill out,
but you could set it up to use any jdk release when they ended up obsoleting
the one built into the ide.
But you answer yourself in the following paragraphs.

Sure, if that's all you want it for. I tend to use an IDE for /compiling/
too.

RIGHT. Which according to folks here, means that I cannot develop using
1.5-isms with eclipse as it stands before rev 3.0.

Just turn off auto build and make a ANT builder that uses the javac command.
Of course the Java Editor will still not understand generics code
and i think there will be other problems that could also arise for
example with code completion..

with an ant builder this should be possible,

1.5 isn't even out yet (and i mean out as the first beta)
of course you could use the early adaptor generices lib for looking at it.
But i wouldn't build any code with it as long as the first beta's or RC are
appearing. Because it is still a running target. That's why i believe
eclipse won't support it in the first Milestones of the 3.0 release.
Because then they are constantly playing catchup. Hopefully the generices
spec will stablelize as soon as possible.
But even if an ide had just a javac call. Then i still believe that the IDE
has to be alterd to support all the new syntax (think about the editor)
I also don't know exactly which roadmaps ends first the one of eclispe 3.0
or the one of 1.5? If i have to guess then i think we have Eclipse 3.0 final
long before a 1.5 final so if eclise supports it then it is fine by me.

A "turn off jdk specifics" option would help with this not in the slightest.

There already is - use javac, jikes - or whatever - as an external tool.
See the "Run > External tools" menu.

So - do that with Eclipse - if you really want.
It can call command-line utilities like the best of them.

Not really---there could be an option like I suggested to turn off anything
in the editor (and anything else in the ide) that is language specific.
Ok, thanks for your suggestions though. I'll give them a whack.
