Android Question compiling code from b4a v. 3.82 with v. 7.01 not possible

[jnjft]

Hello! I began writing an app with b4a version 3.82 and upgraded to version 7.01 yesterday. When I load the code into v7.01 it is not possible to compile it, it stops with an error message ('... java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: com/android/dx/command/Main : Unsupported major.minor version 52.0 ...)
Can anybody help me please?
Thank you

You have to install Java 8 on your dev machine.
Recall to update the IDE to use it under Tools - Configure Paths.

 

[eps]

and what Android SDK have you got on your machine?

Unsupported major.minor version 52.0

Update your Java to Version 8.

See

Installation
1. Java JDK v8

• Open the Java 8 JDK download link.
• Check the Accept License Agreement button.
• Select "Windows x86 (32-bit) or Windows x64" in the platforms list.
• Download the file and install it.

Make sure to change the path of your java installation in Tools-Configure paths to the new one.
