In my case  just changingTarget JVM Version like this   File   Setting   Kotlin Compiler   Target JVM Version   1 8 did not help  However  it does resolved compile time error  But failed at runtime   I also had to add following in app build gradle file to make it work    android           Other code here         kotlinOptions           jvmTarget    1 8

In my case this code did n work until I move apply plugin   kotlin-android  from bottom to top   apply plugin   com android application  apply plugin   kotlin-android   android               compileOptions           sourceCompatibility JavaVersion VERSION 1 8         targetCompatibility JavaVersion VERSION 1 8            kotlinOptions           jvmTarget    1 8

If you have many sourcesets modules it can be cumbersome to configure the jvmTarget for each of them separately   You can configure the jvmTarget for all of them at once like so   tasks withType org jetbrains kotlin gradle tasks KotlinCompile  all       kotlinOptions           jvmTarget    1 8            This snippet can be used on top level of your gradle build file  After modifying the gradle file Reimport All Gradle Imports  To check if it worked  open Project Structure and verify that IntelliJ correctly assigned JVM 1 8 to all Kotlin-Modules  It should look like this     I would not recommend changing the platform directly in IntelliJ  because anyone else cloning your project for the first time is likely to face the same issue  Configuring it correctly in gradle has the advantage that IntelliJ is going to behave correctly for them right from the start

Another hint for Eclipse users  After double checking the jvm target settings pointed out by other users  I still had the same problem  and that was caused by missing Kotlin Runtime Library  For eg  when creating a project with spring initializr  it is not added automatically  For adding it  right click on your project - gt  Build path - gt  Add libraries    - gt  User Library  and simply add org jetbrains kotlin core KOTLIN CONTAINER  Make sure you refresh your gradle project afterwards  right click - gt  Gradle - gt  Refresh gradle project

When the other solutions did not work for you  Changing JVM version on Compiler settings and adding jvmTarget into your build gradle   because of your  iml files trying to force their configurations you can change the target platform from Project Settings    Open File  gt  Project Structure Go to Facets under Project Settings   If it is empty then click on the small   button  Click on your Kotlin module modules Change the Target Platform to JVM 1 8  also it s better to check Use project settings option
