When I run $ javac Simulator.java
then I get the following warning:
warning: ./particle_simulator/Atom.class: major version 51 is newer than 50, the highest major version supported by this compiler.
I don't know why I suddenly get this warning as I haven't made substantial changes to my code. Nevertheless, how do I upgrade my Java compiler?
I'm running Mac OSX 10.7.5 and my Java version is below:
java version "1.6.0_65"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_65-b14-462-11M4609)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.65-b04-462, mixed mode)
Download the JDK from Oracle: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/ . Make sure you get the OSX version. It has its own installer so installation should be pretty straight forward.
