Error:Gradle: Execution failed for task ':ios:compileJava'. > invalid source release: 1.8

[Cliff Cawley]

Hi,

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I'm trying to Trial RoboVM and I've wasted too much time trying to just get iOS to compile that my Trial will be over soon.

The error message I get is: 

Error:Gradle: Execution failed for task ':ios:compileJava'.
> invalid source release: 1.8

I downloaded and installed RoboVM 1.8 and MacOSX 10.10 and I'm having real problems building ios. Android builds and runs fine.

I tried to create a new project but I only had JDK7 installed so I installed JDK8 and have been trying ever since to convince it to use that since it seems the error says it can't find 1.8.

I created a new configuration for the iOS simulator too.

As far as I can tell, it can't find JAVA_HOME, even though it's defined in my bash_profile and .profile as export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home) and I've tested in terminal with echo $JAVA_HOME that it's defined and pointing to JDK8 - /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_60.jdk/Contents/Home

If I open RoboVM Prererences and set Gradle JVM to 1.8 instead of 1.7, and try building again, it gets reset back to 1.7. I can't select 'Use JAVA_HOME' as it says not defined yet.

So I assume that's the problem.

The idea.log contains:

[Mario Zechner]

Hard to tell why IDEA/Studio would pick your JDK 7 install over the JDK 8 install. The hacky fix would be to temporarily move the JDK 7 install out of /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines. Please give that a try. If that doesn't help, then we'll need to file an issue with JetBrains.

[Cliff Cawley]

Thanks for the tip, after doing that and opening the project I got:

Error:Invalid Gradle JDK configuration found. <a href='#open_external_system_settings'>Open Gradle Settings</a> 

Platform SDK does not point to valid JDK (/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_71.jdk/Contents/Home)

<a href="openFile">Open File</a>

After opening the RoboVM Studio->Preferences and forcing it to 1.8 again, it now seems to just get stuck and complain about the above, resetting it back to 1.7 when I check the settings again, this time the 1.7 path is coloured red to show that it's missing.

I've tried 'Use default gradle wrapper' as well as 'use customizeable' but both get the same results in that it keeps resetting back to 1.7 even though it's invalid.

Just to add to this, if I edit gradle.xml in the .idea path, and change 

<option name="gradleJvm" value="1.7" />

to

<option name="gradleJvm" value="1.8" />

upon building it changes it automatically back to 1.7

I'm afraid i can't reproduce this locally. Could you try the latest RoboVM Studio snapshot? http://download.robovm.org/nightlies/robovm-studio/robovm-studio-1.8.1-SNAPSHOT.dmg that bundles a JDK 8. In addition, please delete the following directories so we ensure nothing old is left over:

rm -r ~/Library/Application\ Support/RoboVMStudio*/

rm -r ~/Library/Caches/RoboVMStudio*/

rm -r ~/Library/Preferences/RoboVMStudio*/

Thank Mario,

I've installed and I'm trying to use it, but this version doesn't seem to allow me to select my previously downloaded Android SDK, just install it from scratch, which will be about 1.1GB of data.

In the non snapshot version I could choose my Android SDK location OR install a new version. Is there some way I can still choose an existing installation?

I'll add that option back in.

Cheers, I'll try again when you let me know it's ready :)

Latest version still forces me to choose the Android SDK.

I tried choosing it manually in the preferences but couldn't find anywhere to do that.

Okay, I just went ahead and let it download what it wanted.

Everything seems to be working now
