Does ADT support Java 7 API [closed]

Answer 1

No, the android documentation is pretty clear about this. Only Java 6.

Also, be sure to download the Oracle JDK 6 (the Java Runtime is not sufficient).

Answer 2

While you can write code in Java 7, the Android Systems that run it only support upto Java 6, so 7 features like switch-case on Strings fail.

As of Build tools 19, Java 7 is now supported.
