That looks similar to what you'd get if you run a .class file
compiled for Java 5.0 on a 1.4 or less JVM...  A bit of Googling
would turns up this:<br>

The JavaPractice project doesn't appear to have been set up as a Java
project. It's visibly missing JRE System Library. You might be able to
add this by right-clicking on the project, choosing Build Path ->
Configure Build Path, then click the Libraries tab and the Add
Library... button, then JRE System Library and add that. (If it didn't
start out as a Java project, then something else might be broken. It's
easier to start off life correctly.)

You are selecting a 1.7 execution environment in the New Project Wizard
however, it appears that you don't have a 1.7 JRE defined to your
workspace. You appear to have a 1.6 JRE.

You need to either install a 1.7 JDK and configure it in the workspace,
or switch you projects to a 1.6 execution environment or a 1.6 JRE.

Is there a real difference between 1.7 and 1.6? Also how would i configure the workspace for 1.7?

Yes, there is a real difference between them. In order to configure a
workspace for 1.7, you have to point to a 1.7 JDK or JRE.

If you don't need a 1.7 execution environment, you can change the
project to use a 1.6 environment.
