compile rJava with jdk1.8.0_05

I am trying to compile rJava using on OSX 10.7.5

install.packages("rJava",type="source")

The motive is this. I am using code compiled with jdk1.8.0_05 and call it using rJava. When I do this there is a mismatch between the class file version of code compiled with jdk1.8.0_05 and the class files rJava recognizes.

I have installed xz using homebrew but that didn't help.

Can I not use rJava to call code compiled with jdk1.8.0_05 ?

rJava binaries are installed and working properly. It is the source compilation that causes this.

I have executed R CMD javareconf.

Solution

You need a library: "library not found for -llzma"

Try download and install XZ 5.0.7: http://macpkg.sourceforge.net/
