I've run into this issue as well. I tried working around it by modifying FlashBuilder.ini like so: -vm C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_60\bin\javaw.exe which made it possible to run asjsc from Flash Builder. However, when I try to run flex-falcon/build.xml from Flash Builder I am running into this issue again. I don't yet understand which .jar file it is failing to execute: BUILD FAILED C:\flex-falcon\build.xml:66: The following error occurred while executing this line: C:\flex-falcon\compiler\build.xml:250: java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: com/sun/tools/javac/Main : Unsupported major.minor version 52.0 I've found this page which explains how to compile newer Java code to run under earlier versions (write Java 1.7 code, run under 1.6): http://javarevisited.blogspot.com/2015/05/fixing-unsupported-majorminor-version.html Basically you need to use the -target switch when compiling the java code. -- View this message in context: http://apache-flex-development.2333347.n4.nabble.com/FalconJX-Vanilla-compiler-all-externs-parsing-and-contained-in-SWC-tp47556p50889.html Sent from the Apache Flex Development mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
