One additional limitation exists for so-called core components (streaming api, jackson-annotations and jackson-databind): no additional dependendies are allowed beyond:
-* Core components may rely on any methods included in the supported JDK: currently core components are limited to JDK 1.5
+* Core components may rely on any methods included in the supported JDK
+ * Minimum JDK version is 1.6 as of Jackson 2.4 and above (1.5 was baseline with 2.3 and earlier)
* Jackson-databind (this package) depends on the other two (annotations, streaming).
-This means that anything that has to rely on additional APIs or libraries needs to be built as an extension, usually a Jackson module.
