i have j.d.k 1.5 being used in my program which gives error as

"(try -source 1.4 or lower to use 'enum' as an identifier)
oper.setUse(org.apache.axis.enum.Use.ENCODED);"

the code that i used is

"oper.setStyle(org.apache.axis.enum.Style.RPC);
oper.setUse(org.apache.axis.enum.Use.ENCODED);"

please give me a solution at the earliest.

You have a package that has ???enum??? in its name. This is no longer
allowed in Java 1.5. Rename the package or do what the compiler says:
compile with -source 1.4 (I would recommend the former).

You are stuck with the latter since you don't get to rename the third-party
artifacts.

You could try the version of Axis that doesn't have this issue.
<http://ws.apache.org/axis2/>

Even in Asix 1.x the particular class 'Use' is deprecated.
<http://ws.apache.org/axis/java/apiDocs/org/apache/axis/enum/package-summary.html>

Bottom line: don't use that 'org.apache.axis.enum' package.
