Access restriction on class due to restriction on required library rt.jar?

Question

I\'m attempting to compile Java 1.4 code that was created by IBM\'s WSDL2Java on Java5 without recreating

Answer 1

for me this how I solve it:

• go to the build path of the current project

under Libraries

• select the "JRE System Library [jdk1.8xxx]"
• click edit
• and select either "Workspace default JRE(jdk1.8xx)" OR Alternate JRE
• Click finish
• Click OK

Note: make sure that in Eclipse / Preferences (NOT the project) / Java / Installed JRE ,that the jdk points to the JDK folder not the JRE C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_74
