See https://blogs.oracle.com/darcy/entry/bootclasspath_older_source for 
a explanation of this warning. In short: the compiler cannot detect if 
you use classes/methods that have been added in a later Java version.

I guess you need the Java SE SDK (standard edition instead of enterprise 
edition).

Cheers and happy coding!
