Hey! I want you to share the code that you are trying to execute so that I can understand the issue more clearly.

Till you send the code, I would tell you what the problem is according to me.

Actually, java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError happens because of a higher JDK during compile time and lower JDK during runtime.

Don't worry, It is actually simple. What you need to do is, you need to first uninstall the JRE/JDK that you have (also the IDE) and then install BOTH JRE / JDK of the same version, like:
JRE 6 -> JDK 6
JRE 7 -> JDK 7

Hope this will solve your problem, If not do share the code.

    }

}
Above is the code.

So do i need to install JRE6 and JDK 7?
