You actually probably have whatever the class is, but they renamed a bunch
of packages in that transition. If you have the source (which I doubt you
do) it would be easy to tell from the stack trace. The problem is that the
error occured inside the 'compiled' area of the application.

There might be some freeware java decompilers that you could use to get
this much information, but I don't know their names offhand.

You can have two Java runtimes installed on the same machine and just
manipulate the paths to get PDAsync to use the 1.2 version. That would
probably be the easiest way to get it running.
