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.
A Java version between 8 and 18 is required to execute Gradle.
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.
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.
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:
Somenthing like:
android {
...
defaultConfig {
...
jackOptions {
enabled true
}
}
compileOptions {
sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
}
}
