Cannot seem to compile the 4.2 branch off of GitHub

I run throught the steps here:
https://community.jboss.org/wiki/BuildingHibernateORM4x5x

And at first I got an out of memory error, so I increased the JVM stack sizes by creating a gradle.properties file with the following line:
org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xms512m -Xmx1024m

That got me further down the build, but now I'm getting this error:

Code:

..../hibernate-orm/hibernate-core/src/test/java/org/hibernate/test/service/ClassLoaderServiceImplTest.java:121: cannot find symbol
symbol  : method emptyEnumeration()
location: class java.util.Collections
             return java.util.Collections.emptyEnumeration();
                                         ^
..../hibernate-orm/hibernate-core/src/test/java/org/hibernate/test/type/descriptor/java/LocaleTypeDescriptorTest.java:55: cannot find symbol
symbol  : class Builder
location: class java.util.Locale
      final Locale.Builder builder = new Locale.Builder();
                  ^
..../hibernate-orm/hibernate-core/src/test/java/org/hibernate/test/type/descriptor/java/LocaleTypeDescriptorTest.java:55: cannot find symbol
symbol  : class Builder
location: class java.util.Locale
      final Locale.Builder builder = new Locale.Builder();

It's when trying to build this task:
:hibernate-core:compileTestJava

Any ideas on how to fix this? Or what I might be doing wrong?

Cheers

Also can't build the master:

Code:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* Where:
Build file '..../hibernate-orm/build.gradle' line: 85

* What went wrong:
A problem occurred evaluating root project 'hibernate-orm'.
> org/hibernate/build/gradle/publish/auth/maven/AuthenticationManager : Unsupported major.minor version 51.0

* Try:
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.

BUILD FAILED

Hi,
looks like you're not compiling with JDK7.
It will work at runtime with Java6, still you need 7 to build it.

Thanks! I had just tracked it down with some help from the irc channel. Maybe need to update the documentation on the wiki, as it says you need 6 to build 4.x

Appreciate the quick answer

Was just luck :-)
Indeed I was about to add that for help as contributor you're likely better off on the IRC channels or hibernate-dev mailing list. Unfortunately we can't even read most posts here, although I try.

I've asked to add a better error message; this requirement of JDK7 is quite recent, but you will clearly not be the last one.

I installed the JDK 7 from oracle, but I can't seem to configure Gradle to use it. I'm working on a Mac, and javac - version gives 1.7.0_45, I've also tried adding this line to gradle.properties:
org.gradle.java.home=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home
but it still gives me the same errors (non being able to find 1.7 specific API's).

Maybe I need to go find out more about gradle.

please ask on the mailing list: using Linux myself I don't know how to help you, but there are other developers using a Mac regularly.

Is JAVA_HOME set?
