android studio tools 24,Android Studio: Buildtools 24.0.1 requires Java 1.8 or above.

问题

I'm trying to setup an Android dev environment on Mac.

My starting point is Java 1.7 I believe. So I installed android studio and opened the project I'd like to build. And it says:

Error:Buildtools 24.0.1 requires Java 1.8 or above. Current JDK version is 1.7.

So I went and download Java 1.8 u101 and installed that. No luck. Then I removed Android Studio and re-installed it and re-installed the SDK and still no luck.

My Java Control Pannel says: Java 8 update 101.

Output of /usr/bin/java:

java version "1.8.0_101"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_101-b13)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.101-b13, mixed mode)

Output of /usr/bin/javac

javac 1.8.0_101

What have I done wrong?

回答1:

Make sure your JDK Version through Project Structure

You can add this in your gradle section

compileOptions {

sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8

targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8

}

On a Mac just double-click on the app and a new modal windows will show. Then select 'Open Module Setting' and go to 'SDK Location'.

Click project structure -> app -> in properties change the (compile Sdk Version ) to google API's 23 . and in build tools Version = 22.0.1
