How do I solve Execution failed for task ':device_info_plus:compileReleaseJavaWithJavac'. > error: invalid source release: 17 on CircleCI?

[davidgtu]

Hi everyone,

This has been happening on my circleci environment. I was able to solve this locally by installing java 17 and using it.

I was somewhat able to deduce what I need to do from this thread, but I'm not sure how to replicate it on CircleCI/Fastlane.

I've tried the following:

• Adding this to my build.gradle

        coreLibraryDesugaringEnabled true
        sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_17
        targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_17
    }

    kotlinOptions {
        jvmTarget = '17'
    }

    kotlin {
        jvmToolchain(17)
    }

• Adding a step in circle CI to install jdk 17

All of these still get me the error

 Execution failed for task ':device_info_plus:compileReleaseJavaWithJavac'. > error: invalid source release: 17

My Fastfile looks like this:

default_platform(:android)

platform :android do
  desc "Submit a new prod release build"
  lane :prod_release do |options|
    build_number = options[:build_number]
    begin
      Dir.chdir "../.." do
        sh("flutter", "clean")
        sh("flutter", "pub", "get")
        sh("flutter", "build", "appbundle", "--build-number=#{build_number}", "--flavor=prod", "-t", "lib/main_prod.dart")
      end
      upload_to_play_store(
        track: 'internal', 
        aab: '../build/app/outputs/bundle/prodRelease/app-prod-release.aab',
        package_name: 'com.appname.members',
      )
      on_success("Successfully released Android pre-release build")
    rescue => exception
      on_error(exception)
      raise
    end
  end

  desc "Submit a new staging release build"
  lane :staging_release do |options|
    build_number = options[:build_number]
    begin

      Dir.chdir "../.." do
        sh("flutter", "clean")
        sh("flutter", "pub", "get")
        sh("flutter", "build", "appbundle", "--build-number=#{build_number}", "--flavor=staging", "-t", "lib/main_staging.dart")
      end

      )

Hello @davidgtu

Here is a solution for your issue:
Let’s address the issue related to the “invalid source release: 17” error in your CircleCI environment. To resolve this, follow these steps:

Set Gradle JVM to Java 17:
In IntelliJ IDEA, go to File > Settings > Build, Execution, Deployment > Build Tools > Gradle.
Select your project and set the Gradle JVM to your Java 17 version.
Update Gradle Plugin Version:
Ensure that you are using an appropriate version of the Gradle plugin in your build.gradle file.
Update the org.springframework.boot and io.spring.dependency-management plugin versions to the latest compatible versions.
Check JDK Compatibility:
Verify that your CircleCI environment is using Java 17.
Export the JAVA_HOME environment variable to point to a valid JDK 17 installation.
You can set it in your CircleCI configuration or directly in your build script.
Review CircleCI Configuration:
Double-check your CircleCI configuration to ensure that it correctly installs JDK 17.
Make sure that the JDK installation step is executed before the build process.
Verify Android SDK Location:
If you encounter additional issues related to SDK location, ensure that the Android SDK is correctly configured.
Define a valid SDK location using the ANDROID_HOME environment variable or set the sdk.dir path in your project’s local.properties file.
Deprecated Gradle Features:
Address any warnings related to deprecated Gradle features. These warnings may impact compatibility with Gradle 9.0.
