RoboVM not working on JDK 1.8.0 b112 - eclipse

I'm running Eclipse with RoboVM plugin and I wanted to try IOSDemo sample project described on robovm.org (http://www.robovm.org/docs.html). When creating the project in Eclipse and running it I got following error message.
An internal error occurred during: "Launching IOSDemo".
java.lang.IllegalAccessError: tried to access method java.lang.Object.clone()Ljava/lang/Object; from class soot.toolkits.scalar.LocalSplitter
I found out that it's related to JDK version (I'm running JDK 8.0 ea, build 112). When running on JDK 1.7.0_45 and building the project on cmd line it builds and runs OK.
Is it known problem, is there any workaround or fix? Thanks

This is most probably due to a bug [1] in the recent early access builds of Java8. It looks like the bug was resolved a few days ago but as far as I can see the fix didn't make it into the b113 build. Please use the latest Java7 release or an earlier Java8 EA build until a Java8 build is available with this fix included.

Why do I get IllegalStateException: Missing hosting module org.netbeans.libs.javacimpl when upgrade to Netbeans 13?

After I upgraded Netbeans from 12.6 to 13, Netbeans doesn't start. When I start it from the command line, I got the following message:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Missing hosting module org.netbeans.libs.javacimpl for fragment org.netbeans.modules.nbjavac.impl

What's the reason? How can I fix it?
This is caused by old nb-javac (Netbeans Java Compiler) modules installed in an older Netbeans version, which are incompatible with nb-javac, which is now bundled in Netbeans.
It's necessary to remove those old modules. You can find them in the Netbeans user directory. On Linux this is for example in ~/.netbeans or in ~/snap/netbeans/current, if installed as a Snap package. Those nb-javac files are in the modules directory in that directory (e.g. ~/.netbeans/modules) and include nbjavac in the name, e.g. org-netbeans-modules-nbjavac-api.jar. Delete all such files that include nbjavac. Then start Netbeans again, all should work now.
This problem was reported for a development version of Netbeans 13 on the developers' mailing list: https://www.mail-archive.com/dev#netbeans.apache.org/msg09777.html. There are original instructions that helped me to fix this issue. I wasn't using any development build of Netbeans, I just upgraded from the regular version 12.6 to the version 13 of Netbeans. In Netbeans 12.6, I installed the nb-javac plugin, which probably brought these incompatible modules that needed to be removed.

Error when open eclipse - MAC

I have installed eclipse on my iMac and when I try to open it, it gives me this error:
Failed to find a Main Class in
"/Applications/Eclipse.app/Contents/MacOS//../Eclipse/ plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.5.0.v20180512-1130.jar".
On my MacBook Pro, everything works fine, but I have done nothing different.
I have checked other posts, but most of them refer to a windows OS. There was an answer which said that it can just open when everything is in an English folder and this is true for me!
Thanking you in advance!
I came across this error after installing Eclipse PDT.
Open your terminal and run the version command: java -version.
If your java version is below 1.8, you will have to update your Java
Runtime Environment to at least 1.8.0 by installing an updated JDK
here.
Then re-run the java version command and your version
should be updated.
You should now be able to install and run
Eclipse.
I have the same issue, but on my MacBookPro. I first installed eclipse Photon, which when starting up prompted me to install Java 6, which I did from https://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572?locale=en_US
Then I also installed the latest JRE (jre-8u171-macosx-x64 as of yesterday). When running eclipse again I started getting this error. Then I tried to run from the command line, and got this error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: org/eclipse/equinox/launcher/Main : Unsupported major.minor version 51.0
When googling that, the answers said that the reason for that is that the Oracle installer does not update the symlink in /usr/bin, which seemed to be confirmed by the fact that running java -version returned this:
java -version
java version "1.6.0_65"
The solutions I found for that were not feasible in MacOS starting in version El Capitan, and I am on High Sierra, so I followed the instructions in this post to fix that, and it worked, now I get:
java -version
java version "1.8.0_171"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_171-b11)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.171-b11, mixed mode)
After all of this, however, I get the same "Failed to find a Main Class" error on the dialog as reported initially here, and the same "UnsupportedClassVersionError" on the CLI that I had when the system was still on java 6, so now I am still stuck and out of ideas.
EDIT: FIXED IT!!
I kept thinking that the problem was the java version, it was somehow still using java 6 (which I had installed due to the initial prompt).
So I followed the instructions here to remove what I had installed for the alleged java 6 issue. Then I found this post in the eclipse forums, which stated at the end (comment added by Eric Rizzo on Tue, 14 February 2017 21:56) that this is not an Eclipse message, but rather an OS message, and that one should NOT do that as apple messed things up with that patch. And then it goes to explain that one should install java 8 JDK (NOT just the JRE as I had done). Once I removed Java 6 and installed the full java 8 JDK, it ran fine :)
You can edit the eclipse.ini with your vm configuration in the beginning of the file
-vm
/yourJvmPath/jdk-12.0.1.jdk/bin/java
cat /Applications/Eclipse.app/Contents/Eclipse/eclipse.ini
-vm
/Users/SomeUser/jdk-12.0.1.jdk/bin/java
-startup
../Eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.5.400.v20190515-0925.jar
--launcher.library
../Eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.cocoa.macosx.x86_64_1.1.1000.v20190125-2016
PD. It works with ApacheDirectoryStudio for MAC
This one works for me with MAC OS Mojave.

Maven 3.2.5 doesn't work with JDK6

I have an issue and after many attempts don't know how to resolve it.
I have Java/Maven project with JDK 6 and installed Maven 3.2.5 in Eclipse Luna
Now I'm trying to run clean install command to create ZIP package but getting the following error message:
Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.1:compile (default-compile) on project ABC: Fatal error compiling: invalid target release: 1.7
Does someone has this issue before and how do you resolve it.?
Could you help me please?
Thanks in advance.
The project you are attempting to compile specifies that the generated bytecode should be for Java 1.7. To do that you have to have a JDK7 or later.
Either change the project to specify 1.6, or upgrade your Java to 1.7. (There is really no reason to still stay on Java 1.6, it is old and obsolete now.)

Getting Gradle error when starting STS

I am using STS 3.6.0 and during STS startup I am getting error:
org.eclipse.osgi.internal.framework.EquinoxConfiguration$1
Could not fetch model of type 'EclipseProject' using Gradle installation 'C:\build-tools\gradle-1.10'.
And I can't run Gradle task for the project. Any suggestion?
The error message looks similar to the error in this bug [1].
This bug is actually caused by a bug in Eclipse 4.4.2 [2]. There are a few things you can do to avoid this bug:
You can try a more recent version of gradle tooling (and/or STS)
install the workaround from eclipse update site as explained in comment 51 [3] of the Eclipse bug

Unity - Failed to compile resources with the following parameters:

I'm working on adding Google Play Game Services to a Unity project.
Started getting these errors recently, however not sure if it is because of the Game Services, or could be I updated my machine.
The following in Console output:

Got my answer, the issue was that "major version 51" is java 1.7, "version 50" is java 1.6. The solution was to install Java 1.7 and set path accordingly with the following command.
sudo ln -nsf /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_71.jdk/Contents /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/CurrentJDK
For me, changing the JDK path at Preferences => External Tools => JDK finally resolved this issue. Creating the symbolic link wasn't enough or possibly not even needed.
I would just re-install or update JDK , And its work
