Hi,

I've installed the jav8 as a maven dependency and tried the exemple.

I get the following error. I suppose that I do not have the gooed V8 version, 
but what is the supported version.

Best.

It seems you are using Java 6 or lower version, the jar package was build with 
Java 7 (version 51), I will provide Java 6 package later

J2SE 8 = 52,
J2SE 7 = 51,
J2SE 6.0 = 50,
J2SE 5.0 = 49,
JDK 1.4 = 48,
JDK 1.3 = 47,
JDK 1.2 = 46,
JDK 1.1 = 45
