Thanks in advance!

The Java agent does not support JDK 1.6
See also the list of supported technologies: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/java/current/supported-technologies-details.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/java/current/supported-technologies-details.html)
However, if you compile with the JDK 1.6 but run on a 1.7 JVM, that is supported.
