It needs to upgrade the Compiler Compliance. 

For Eclipse: Follow the steps below:

  1. Right-click on your java project and select Build Path -> Click on Configure Build Path...
  2. In project properties window: Click/select Java Compiler at the left panel
  3. At the right panel: change the Compiler compliance level from 1.4 to 1.7 or higher
  4. Lastly, Click on Apply and OK

Hope this helps!

I have changed to Compiler compliance settings 1.4 to 1.7 but won't worked.

Same problems repeated.

In that case, could you please post the code snippet you are using?
Here is the code

package Fourthday;

import org.openqa.selenium.By;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;

import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;

public class GoogleLink {

public static void main(String[] args) {

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver",

"D:\\workspace\\training\\ThirdDay\\bin\\Pack\\Drivers\\chromeDriver.exe");

          WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

         driver.get("https://www.google.com/");

         WebElement search=driver.findElement(By.xpath("//input[@name='q']"));

         search.sendKeys("selenium");

         WebElement word=driver.findElement(By.xpath("(//input[@name='btnK'])[2]"));

         word.submit();

         WebElement last=driver.findElement(By.xpath("//span[contains(text(),'Selenium WebDriver')]"));

         last.click();

}

}
Hey, have you checked for any version compatibility issues?
