I'm getting the following errors when attempting to build a project using JDK 1.8 and eclipse neon:

You have to tell your java compiler to produce java 7 compatible class files, because android (dex) does not support java 8 at the moment.

If you want to use lambdas in your sources, you can use retrolambda (https://github.com/evant/gradle-retrolambda) or the new Jack compiler (https://developer.android.com/preview/j8-jack.html)

Update: Since Android Studio 3.0 and Android Gradle Plugin 3.0, java 8 classfiles can be used, too.
