Please provide your guidance to fix out above issue Thanks

Answer 1

That means, you are trying use JDK 1.8(Version 52.0) android compiled libraries with 1.7 run-time

Here, com/android/dx/command/Main compiled with JDK 1.8, but your current environment pointing to jdk1.7.0_80.jdk

Check this - Unsupported major.minor version 52.0 in my app
