Hi All,

I've updated to latest thucydides version 0.9.244 but it's giving errors as below

Please let me know which step I'm doing wrong . 

<thucydides.version>0.9.244</thucydides.version>    This is only value I keep updating time to time.

java version "1.8.0_05"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_05-b13)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.5-b02, mixed mode)

Thanks & Regards,

This error is shown from 0.9.236 onwards.

For long time I was on build 0.9.235

"Unsupported major.minor version 51.0" - this usually means that your Java version is prior to 1.7. I'm using Thucydides 0.9.244 with Java 7 and it works fine for me.

Hi Adrian,

I've updated to latest java version

On MAC it shows 1.8.0_05 and I have also set JAVA_HOME in .bash_profile

Later did Maven > Update Project 

But still getting this error , please clarify which step I'm missing now ?

Thanks & Regards,

Vikram

Hi Adrian and All,

I could solve the issue , please find below info on it

1. Even after updating to latest JDK , eclipse still pointing to older JDK

2. Make Eclipse point to latest JDK

3. Also set JAVA_HOME to make sure correct version of JDK is picked up.

Thanks again.

Regards,

Vikram
