Gradle can't compile with java 1.8

i have started having a problem with my project. Whenever I set source and target capability in my build.gradle file to java version 1_8 my project can't compile.

Heres build.gradle code

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.5.0'
    }
}
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

repositories {
    jcenter()
}

android {
    compileSdkVersion 22
    buildToolsVersion "23.0.1"

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "xxxx"
        minSdkVersion 22
        targetSdkVersion 22
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
    }

    compileOptions {
        sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
        targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
}

dependencies {
}

Works fine with java 1.6

here is some stack trace from gradle assembleDebug --stacktrace

BUILD FAILED

Seems like some problem with a compiler, can't figure out what to do.

My bash profile if there is something to do with it

export GRADLE_HOME=/Users/xxx/Library/gradle-2.8/bin
export ANDROID_HOME=/Users/xxx/Library/Android/sdk
export ANDROID_NDK=/Users/xxx/Library/android-ndk
export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_25.jdk/Contents/Home
export PATH=${PATH}:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools:$GRADLE_HOME:$JAVA_HOME:$ANDROID_NDK

I have tried different gradle versions - 2.11 , 2.12 , 2.8.

Im working on IntelliJ15. Tried setting project path in module settings, also tried setting language level to lambdas. Nothing seem to work.

Does Gradle work with Java 8?

A Java version between 8 and 18 is required to execute Gradle.

Can I compile Java 8 with Java 11?

The class files created by Java 8 are still executable in Java 11; however, there have been other changes in the Java runtime (library changes, etc.) that might require modification of the code. These modifications may be made in Java 8 and compiled with Java 8 making it compatible with the Java 11 runtime.

Does Gradle 7 work with java8?

Compiling and testing Java 6/7Gradle can only run on Java version 8 or higher. Gradle still supports compiling, testing, generating Javadoc and executing applications for Java 6 and Java 7. Java 5 and below are not supported.

Does Gradle support Java 13?

A Java version between 8 and 13 is required to execute Gradle. Java 14 and later versions are not yet supported. Java 6 and 7 can still be used for compilation and forked test execution.

Android is introducing java 8 only with Android N.

To work with java 8 you need:

  • Android Studio 2.1 (Preview)
  • enable the jack compiler

Somenthing like:

android {
  ...
  defaultConfig {
    ...
    jackOptions {
      enabled true
    }
  }
  compileOptions {
    sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
  }
}
