Java 1.8 Support

[matvey....@gmail.com]

Hello  I recently installed this IDE and am wondering how to switch the compiler version to java 1.8.

I'm not sure if javac from JDK8 will run - I have not tried so far. But I made javac from JDK6 work in JID. This is how:
1. You need to have the PRO version of JID
2. On the PC, create a running version of javac8.jar
3. Use dx to create javac8.jar.dex.zip
4. Transfer javac8.jar.dex.zip to your mobile device
5. On the device, create a beanshell script where you load the compiler with IDE.fnAddToClasspath (String dexArchive) and then call the compiler's main class with the compiler parameters

Thanks I really appreciate the help. I am relatively new to compilers and wish that the software was updated but whatever. I guess I'll try to figure out how to make it work and if I'll do I'll post in the group.

Thanks,
