CompassPlugin : Unsupported major.minor version 52.0 about gradle-compass HOT 5 CLOSED

I confirm. Something is forcing Java 8.

from gradle-compass.

No, that's just the travis tests. The problem is that the project owner compiled the jar with Java 8 and no 'source compatibility' and then uploaded that to bintray/mvn.

Since there is nothing in the release notes, I'm guessing this wasn't intentional.

Right, looks like explicit source/target compatibility must be put in place, like

    tasks.withType(JavaCompile) {
        sourceCompatibility = '1.7'
        targetCompatibility = '1.7'
    }

    tasks.withType(GroovyCompile) {
        sourceCompatibility = '1.7'
        targetCompatibility = '1.7'
    }

AFAIK this is the only way to force the Groovy compiler to use an specific target level.

This has been fixed with #42

from gradle-compass.

Hello,

I am still getting the same error described above, even with the 1.7 fix.
