Description _ rkubacki 2014-04-09 15:47:07 UTC

https://bitbucket.org/nbandroid/nbandroid/issue/26/use-source-17-or-higher

When I set java.source=1.7 in my ant.properties IDE refuses to accept this and prints following into log:

Even though the source level of /home/radim/src/bitbucket.org/campfire-client/FiresideTalk/src:/home/radim/src/bitbucket.org/campfire-client/FiresideTalk/gen is set to: 1.7, java.lang.AutoCloseable cannot be found on the bootclasspath: /home/radim/android/android-sdk-linux/platforms/android-14/android.jar:/home/radim/android/android-sdk-linux/tools/support/annotations.jar
Changing source level to 1.6

A serious usability problem for all Android projects.

OK, I will keep the source level 1.7 but I will still log the problem like:

Even though the source level of /home/radim/src/bitbucket.org/campfire-client/FiresideTalk/src:/home/radim/src/bitbucket.org/campfire-client/FiresideTalk/gen is set to: 1.7, java.lang.AutoCloseable cannot be found on the bootclasspath: /home/radim/android/android-sdk-linux/platforms/android-14/android.jar:/home/radim/android/android-sdk-linux/tools/support/annotations.jar
Try with resources is unsupported.
