After installing the plugin build failed due to (use -source 8 or higher to enable lambda expressions) ../platforms/android/src/de/appplant/cordova/plugin/background/BackgroundModeExt.java:168: error: lambda expressions are not supported in -source 1.6

                getApp().runOnUiThread(() -> {
                                          ^

(use -source 8 or higher to enable lambda expressions)

../platforms/android/src/de/appplant/cordova/plugin/background/BackgroundModeExt.java:257: error: method references are not supported in -source 1.6

            activity.runOnUiThread(dialog::show);
                                           ^

You have to build the app with Java 8 (1.8)

mbilbao commented 4 years ago

I face the same issue and I already have Java 1.8. Is there any way to force to compile this part with java 1.8??

mirko77 commented 4 years ago

@mbilbao I did that in Android Studio, setting 1.8 as both target and source compatibility.

mbilbao commented 4 years ago

Yes, I did the same, but somehow it managed to keep compiling that part in 1.7

mirko77 commented 4 years ago

Do a cordova clean and rebuild

Also, look at your grade files, maybe you have some reference to 1.7 still there
