Using the Converter for a Target Java Card Version
The Converter can be used to create CAP files for Java Card versions 3.0.4, 3.0.5 and 3.1.0, using the –target [version] command line parameter. If the CAP file needs to be deployed on multiple Java Card versions, use the oldest version (that is, the smallest version number) as the target.
