I am using Eclipse IDE for Java developers, version Helios Service Release2, Build id 20110218-0911.
The machine is Windows7 x64 machine.
JRE is build 1.7.0-b147 with support for 64 bit version.

Whenever I run try-with-resources code as show below I get errors. Basically there are 2 classes-
1. WriteObject class
2. Person class

Both are reproduced below for reference-
//WriteObject Class
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.ObjectOutputStream;
import java.util.logging.Level;
import java.util.logging.Logger;

public class WriteObject {
    public static void main (String[] args){
        System.out.println("Writing Objects....");
        
        Person mike=new Person(543,"Bulbul");
        Person sue=new Person(123,"Chintu");
        
        System.out.println(mike);
        System.out.println(sue);
        
        try(FileOutputStream fs=new FileOutputStream("d:\\people.bin")){
            ObjectOutputStream os=new ObjectOutputStream(fs);
            os.writeObject(sue);
            os.writeObject(mike);
            os.close();
        } catch (FileNotFoundException ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(WriteObject.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        }catch (IOException e){
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}


The Person class is reproduced below for reference-

//Person Class
import java.io.Serializable;

public class Person implements Serializable {
    private int id;
    private String name;

    public Person(int id, String name) {
        this.id = id;
        this.name = name;
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return "Person{" + "id=" + id + ", name=" + name + '}';
    }
    
    
}



On Compilation I get a runtime error which is-

Quote:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problems:
Syntax error on token "(", { expected
Syntax error on token ")", ; expected
Syntax error, insert "}" to complete Block

at WriteObject.main(WriteObject.java:24)


Need help as I am not able to make out whether try-with-resources is not supported with this build version of Eclipse? Is there a plugin missing? As when I run this code on Netbeans then it works perfectly okay. Need guidance as I am interested in using eclipse IDE only.

In the project's Properties, Java Build Path section, Libraries tab, what JRE System Library is listed there? In the Java Compiler section, what is the JDK Compliance set to?

It is not supported. You need at least Indigo SR1 to leverage the Java 7
syntax, and then to adjust the compiler compliance values Eric
mentioned. I suggest to move all the way up to Kepler SR1.
