Just finished my mod but will plan to release more updates. How do I convert it to a jar?

run gradlew build in a command prompt from your project directory, your mod will be in build\libs

What's up with it stuck in compileJava and build failed

also it says use source 8 or higher.

I believe to fix that, you edit build.gradle and replace 1.6 with 1.8 on the sourceCompatability line.

You get that error when you use features of java 1.8 but are compiling for 1.6 (which is the default)

at what line notepad++ I mean is it line 32 or 48 somethin like that.

I believe its some variable called sourceCapatibility... There are 2 lines one at 18 and the other at 20... Also you will need to change version, group, and archivesBaseName too because they are used for naming the jar file.

I fixed it line 17 and 18 I changed both to 1.8.

Alright run "gradlew build" and it should make a build directory + other stuff. After that the jar file should be located under "./build/lib" I believe and then you can release it.
