Runnable JAR file error: Unsupported major.minor version 51.0

问题

I made an application in Java (version 7) with Eclipse (Indigo) when I exported my application interface on a Runnable JAR file on my computer and tried it worked fine, then I tried on another computer and I get this problem

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: cliente/Princ

der.java:56)

I saw other post that this can be because the other computer have an older version of Java than mine, can somebody confirm this please?.

回答1:

Yes, that is the error when you try to run Java bytecode with an older version that the version you build it with.

You will find more information in this question.
