[javac] Compliance level '1.5' is incompatible with source level '1.6'. A compliance level '1.6' or better is required

Hi,

• Which version of Java are you using?
• Do you compile with "ant run"?

hi Frederik,

> java -version java version "1.7.0_45" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (mageia-2.4.4.2.mga4-x86_64 u45-b15) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.45-b08, mixed mode)

and yes ant run !

Hi,

I just tried it on Ubuntu 12.04 without any issues, Here are my Java settings:

java version "1.7.0_51"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.4.4) (7u51-2.4.4-0ubuntu0.12.04.2)
OpenJDK Client VM (build 24.45-b08, mixed mode, sharing)

A quick Google search turned up some stuff about dirty caches. Could you try running ant clean, then ant run again?

Unfortunately I don't have the time to try this out every Linux distro. I've attached my Vagrant settings that I use to test NodeBox on. After provisioning the box, I run:

git clone git://github.com/nodebox/nodebox.git
cd nodebox
ant run

Hi Frederik,

i get it ! i had java-1.5.0-gcj-devel instead of java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel
i switched and "ant run" runs well
i can now enjoy nodebox
thank's again

Thanks for clearing that up. Good luck with NodeBox!
