Using 1.7 requires compiling with Android 4.4 (KitKat); currently using API 14

android, java

Solution

If you're supporting API levels < 19 (4.4)

In eclipse: Right click your project -> properties -> from the side bar, pick "Java Compiler" and then change Compiler compliance level to 1.6

If you're support API levels >= 19

You shouldn't see this issue. If you do, make sure that your project's `minSdkVersion` is properly configured.

Problem

So i recently switched the target of my android project to 4.0. Now i have practically errors on every line and the error "Using 1.7 requires compiling with Android 4.4 (KitKat); currently using API 14" on the console. So my question is, how do i change this to work with api 14 and compile? thanks.
