Android requires compiler compliance level 5.0 or 6.0. Found '1.7' instead. Please use Android Tools > Fix Project Properties

when i try to build an android project sent by a friend, Eclipse gives me the following error:

Android requires compiler compliance level 5.0 or 6.0. Found '1.7' instead. Please use Android Tools > Fix Project Properties.

fix project properties has no effect on the error and going to window->preferences->java->compiler and clicking on the compiler compliance drop down box shows only 1.3,1.4,1.5,1.6,1.7

I have also tried enabling project specific settings and using compiler compliance level 1.5 or 1.6

is there any way to add compiler compliance 5 or 6 / any other solution?

Compliance level 5.0 and 6.0 refer to Java 1.5 and 1.6. After you change the compiler compliance to 1.6, clean the project with Project -> Clean... so that it recompiles under Java 1.6.

  • Right-click on your project(Package Explorer) and select "Android Tools -> Fix Project Properties" (if this din't work, try second option)

  • Right-click on your project and select "Properties -> Java Compiler", check "Enable project specific settings" and select 1.5 or 1.6 from "Compiler compliance settings" select box.

    After this rebuild your project (Project -> Clean)
