Java 8+

[Gamebuster19901]

Is it possible to make this compatible with java 8+

I currently cannot use this because I get the following error:

I also tried altering the build script myself to make it compatible with java 8, but I don't really know Kotlin, and it didn't work.

Does this occur with any version java 9+, because I've used it in many java 16 and 17 projects with no issues.

[Gamebuster19901]

It' occurs when using the release jar with java 9. I assume it's because the release jar was compiled with a later version.

[Gamebuster19901]

Can confirm, if I compile with sourceCompatability and 'targetCompatabilityset to8`, I can use it with my java 9 project just fine.

I can make it a PR if you want, but I'm not sure if it breaks anything, it's untested atm.

[LlamaLad7]

Try with the latest release.

I'm going to close this since it's been inactive for quite a while and I believe the issue is fixed in the last few releases. Feel free to reopen if you're still experiencing issues.
