managing multiple versions of JDK: invalid source release error

Question

I have jdk 1.6 and 1.7 installed.

I have updated my JAVA_HOME variable to

C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk1.6.0_24;C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk1.7.0
         


        

Answer 1

Your jdk is still pointing to JDK 1.6. javac is bundled with jdk, while java -version ideally runs even if jre is installed properly.
