Android (SDK > 19) compatibility

[ruha9005]

This project uses Java 1.8. Are there any forks of Skype4J with Java 1.7 (SDK >= 19) compatibility? Because backporting all of this project code will take a long time.

Java 7 was released 5 years ago. Any particular reason why you can't move on?

@Slacktooth My skills in Java 1.8 are not so high. I thought that someone has already ported this API to Android, and I asked this question not because I'm so lazy or something else...

you dont need to know how to use java 8 features to use skype4j, the internal code is just using java 8 features so it needs 1.8.

@Sponges I know about it, but for Android (SDK 19) compatibility I need to backport code that used java 1.8 features to java 1.7, because Android SDK < 24 (below Android N) doesn't support java 1.8.

Issue resolved.
Maybe helpful for someone:
FOREACH:
//this.resources.forEach(interestedResources::add);
for (String resource : this.resources) {
interestedResources.add(resource);
}

FOREACHREMAINING:
//object.get("capabilities").asArray().iterator().forEachRemaining(value -> //this.capabilities.add(value.asString()));
Iterator iterator1 = object.get("capabilities").asArray().iterator();
while (iterator1.hasNext()) {
JsonValue value = iterator1.next();
this.capabilities.add(value.asString());
}

@ruha9005 could you provide me resolved project code please? I wasted the whole day to finding a solution to downgrade to 1.7
