Can I use Camel on Java 1.4

Apache Camel is was developed to run on Java 1.5 or later to take advantage of the new language features like generics and annotations together with using the Java 5 concurrency code.If you absolutely must use Java 1.4 then you can install the retrotranslator JIT in your JVM which will auto-swizzle all Java 5 bytecode to be complaint Java 1.4 bytecode using backport-util-concurrent instead of Java 5 concurrency code. Starting with version 2.7.0, only Java 1.6 is supported.
Starting with version 2.10.0, Java 1.7 is supported, but not required.
