Is there any way where I can increase the Java Compiler Compliance level of Eclipse 3.5 to 1.7. (i.e.) By adding a plugin/add-on. Since by default this will not support the JDK 1.7 compliance.
We have a constraint in Eclipse upgrade, since it's an RCP application.
Any thoughts on this will be greatly appreciated.
Thank You.

Developers can now use Eclipse JDT to develop Java applications that take advantage of the new Java 7 features. The new Eclipse JDT release will include the following for Java 7 support: Eclipse compiler implements all the new Java 7 language enhancements.
A Java 7 JRE/JDK is required for most of the Luna package downloads based on Eclipse 4.4.
Generally Java 8 works the best for most/all versions of Eclipse, including older ones. But if you want to use newer language/library features for Java development and need a newer version of Java for that purpose then newer versions should work with 2019-03 as well.
Java 8 is available as an update for Eclipse Kepler (2013 Release) and is now available nightly / integration builds towards Eclipse Luna (2014 Release).
Old eclipse version doesn't support java 7. You will have to download at least eclipse-3.8M1 version.
