does android support java 21 already? I'm trying to migrate from java 17 to java 21. I'm facing a build error when running ./gradlew android:build > Transform classes.jar (project :shared) with DexingNoClasspathTransform
ERRORmy-project\shared\build\intermediates\runtime_library_classes_jar\release\classes.jar: D8: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unsupported class file major version 65 . It's mutli modules project, where android uses a shared module that compiles fine in isolation

This is not Kotlin related, see the channel description

Also I'm not sure what you're expecting given that Java 20 bytecode isn't supported either, https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/293630962

figured out it would make sense to ask that in an android channel for my kotlin based android project. Thanks for the heads up anyways
