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, 3.1.0 and 3.2.0 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.
