JRE is a java runtime environment, essentially all you need to run java applications. JDK is the java development kit, which contains the JRE. For this, I think you need to install the JDK. You should find a download link on that page ^

 

Cheers for stopping by!

Awesome, try hovering your mouse over the lines - what does it say, and have you tried any of the proposed solutions?

so looking into when i hover over the errors it  tells me to change project compliance and jre to 1.5, looks like i might have JRE 1.1 so im going to update that but could you tell me what it mean when it say change project compliance?.

The project compliance is essentially the version of java which your project is running on. It may well be that your project is for whatever reason running on an outdated version and you may need to update it, as you said

We are at Java 1.8 already. You should update for sure.

Hi, so what "execution environment JRE" should i use? It's set as CDC-1.1/Foundation-1.1 by default.

Thanks
