Description

I switched the project to Gradle 7.0.2.

Java is openJDK 16.0.2

OS is Ubuntu Budgie 21

 

in /opt/gradle there is gradle 7.0.2

in /home/martin/.gradle there are several gradles

 

within build.gradle

I have

 

subprojects

{      sourceCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_16      targetCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_16 }

 

when in terminal

gradle --version shows 7.0.2

./gradlew --version shows 7.0.2

gradle build is working

./gradlew build is working

 

In NB right clicking root project -> "reload project" fails!

 

Message is:

"

Unsupported class file major version 60 (as if I am NOT using gradle 7)

...

Could not run build action ... /home/martin/.gradle ... /gradle-6.7

However under Options->Java->gradle version is set to 7.0.2 // no possible option is working

I am now struggling for hours with this / I am even struggling to be able to go back to Java 15

any quick help highly appreciated
