... and if you are using Maven you should take a look on this article
[1]. There is a Maven plug-in that uses a tool called animal-sniffer [2]
to verify that your code does not depend on new library
classes/methods/fields introduced in later versions of JREs.

You should be able to compile for 1.5 even with a 1.6 VM by setting the
source and target flags on Eclipse and Ant. It will technically compile
against the 1.6 class libraries, but it will produce 1.5-compatible code.

Dear list,
just a small notice - if you want to use Java 1.5 on Snow Leopard, be
aware that what seems to be 1.5 directory is only a symlink pointing
to 1.6 directory.
So even if you have your Eclipse or ant configured to use Java 1.5 and
compile for Java 1.5, that nasty polar cat will actually silently
compile for Java 1.6.
Workaround is for example here
