Eclipse Luna Java8 Beta

Question

I downloaded the latest java8 from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html which I believe is the official Java8 release.But my eclipse Luna still displays in its preferences that it is a Beta version This is what I get after I type java -version

java version "1.8.0"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0-b132)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.0-b70, mixed mode)

Is the build version a beta or is it the official one

Answer 1

The upcoming Luna M7 milestone will have Java 8 support. Prior Luna builds don't have it. You can also add Java 8 support to Kepler SR2.

https://wiki.eclipse.org/JDT/Eclipse_Java_8_Support_For_Kepler

Once installed, you'll need to tell your projects to use Java 8. First add the JDK to eclipse:

• Go to Window -> Preferences
• Go to Java -> Installed JREs
• Add Standard VM, and point to the location of the JRE
• Then go to Compiler
• Set Compiler compliance level to 1.8

Then tell the project to use JDK 1.8:

• Go to Project -> preferences
• Go to Java Compiler
• Enable project specific settings
• Set Compiler compliance level to 1.8

b132和b70值是内部版本号，并且是发行版的正确值。
