Hello I have this test which runs fine from terminal but fails when started from Intellij

Execution failed for task ':compileKotlin'.

Inconsistent JVM-target compatibility detected for tasks 'compileJava' (17) and 'compileKotlin' (21).

I've checked the settings and the sdk is set to openjdk21
I repeat: if I run
gradlew clean test
from terminal everything runs ok. It is a problem with some intellij project settings I think ... but which one?
Thanks a lot

Probably your JAVA_HOME is different in your CLI vs IntelliJ

[mbonnin]

You can check it in the settings (Build Tools -> Gradle) but in all cases, you probably want to be explicit about the targetted JVM bytecode so that it does not depend on your current Java version

I have not setted JAVA_HOME at all, it seems , I use jenv to set local/global in the terminal

[Nicola]

thanks a lot I will check into this

[Nicola]

yes it was it, in build tools->gradle there was jdk 17
I've forgot that one
Thanks again
👍

strange thing is that IntelliJ says that java 21 needs gradle 8.5, but I have 8.4 in the terminal and runs fine.. I will upgrade anyway

It is not officially supported and so some things might not work. But you could also be lucky and it works. But yeah, better is a compatible Java version to run Gradle: https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/compatibility.html

And consider decoupling the Java version used to run Gradle from the Java version used to build and run your code using the toolchains feature.

"toolchains feature" ? Ok I will look about it, thanks a lot
