lambda/lambda sync against JDK8

[Mike Duigou]

The problem is most likely caused by the compiler switching to class file version 52. Intellij probably doesn't recognize that version yet.

It looks like some thing got changed recently (since Nov 20), I am able to build the lambda project fine, but intellij is not recognizing the JDK from build/macosx-x86_64/j2sdk-image directory. I saved a local copy of an earlier build (as of Nov 19) which still works fine with intellij. Any clues on what could be happening? Is anyone able to build usable JDK on mac using old build system?

The jdk repo is now the focus of differences between jdk8 and lambda repos. Changesets have been proposed for inclusion in JDK (see http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/lambda-dev/2012-November/006768.html) and more changesets are being prepared.
