EAS 3.5 in 1.1 vs 1.2 JDK mode. What are issues?

Can someone explain to me the issues involved in making the switch from
JDK 1.1 to 1.2?

So, if I want to start programming in Java JDK 1.2, I need to run EAS in
that mode, right?  If I do so, can I still use existing 1.1 components?
I guess that is the crux of my question:  how does JDK 1.1 and 1.2 code
coexist?  Do I need to migrate existing JDK 1.1 code?  Any other
incompatibilities?

Thanks.

The JDK is backwards compatable.  You can run JDK1.1 code in a Java2 VM.  So
there is nothing to it.
