Select Java Version

Q: How do I change the Java version?

In Appcircle, you can change the Java version by using the 'Select Java Version' component in your workflow configuration. This allows you to specify the desired Java version for your builds.

Q: How can I check the Java version of my Android project?

You can determine the required SDK version by looking at the compileSdk field in your build.gradle file under the module used in your Android project. The table below lists the Java versions corresponding to these SDK versions: 14(API 34) corresponds to 17, 13(API 33) and 12(API 32) corresponds to 11. The Java version for API level 11 and lower is not specified in the Android document.

Appcircle's Select Java Version component allows you to easily switch between Java versions, enabling compatibility and flexibility for diverse project requirements.
