java version "1.8.0-ea"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0-ea-b65)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 25.0-b09, mixed mode)

TestLambda.java:13: error: lambda expressions are not supported in 
-source 1.8
       Runnable r = () -> System.out.println("Run") ;
                       ^
   (use -source 8 or higher to enable lambda expressions)
1 error
