Error with java8 and Kotlin

Question

Error with java8 and Kotlin

I have an application in which I use retrolambda, so in build.gradle I have

compileOptions {
    sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
}

Everything is fine unless I add support for Kotlin. Adding the Kotlin plugin. I get the following error:

Error: Bytecode to dex conversion error: Reason: Dex cannot parse version 52 byte code. This is caused by library dependencies that were compiled using Java 8 or higher. If you use the 'java' gradle plugin in the library submodule, add targetCompatibility = '1.7' sourceCompatibility = '1.7' to this build.gradle file for the submodule.

I found many questions and answers similar to this one, but no solutions are applicable in my case.

This is my build.gradle:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        maven { url 'https://maven.fabric.io/public' }
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'me.tatarka:gradle-retrolambda:3.3.1'
        classpath 'io.fabric.tools:gradle:1.+'
    }
}

repositories {
    // Required because retrolambda is on maven central
    mavenCentral()
    maven { url 'https://maven.fabric.io/public' }
    maven { url 'https://maven.google.com' }

Without success, I tried this

tasks.withType(org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.tasks.KotlinCompile).all {
    sourceCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_6
    targetCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_6

    kotlinOptions {
        jvmTarget = '1.6'
        apiVersion = '1.1'
        languageVersion = '1.1'
    }
}

and this one

tasks.withType(org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.tasks.KotlinCompile).all {
    sourceCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    targetCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8

    kotlinOptions {
        jvmTarget = '1.8'
        apiVersion = '1.1'
        languageVersion = '1.1'
    }
}

, 1.8 kotlin, :

Retrolambda - Kotlin, Kotlin 1,6 -. Kotlin, - .

compileKotlin {
    kotlinOptions.jvmTarget = "1.6"
}

Kotlin Gradle

:

compileTestKotlin {
    kotlinOptions.jvmTarget = "1.6"
}
