UnsupportedClassVersionError/Unsupported major.minor version 50.0

[ravi120486]

Hi all , I have the class file (HelloWorld.class) calls a native method, and the native library (Hello-World.dll) implements the native method. While running the HelloWorld class I am getting following error: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: HelloWorld (Unsupported major.minor version 50.0) Is this error releted to Java version? I am using JDK 1.6.

The most likely cause is that the HelloWorld class was compiled to version 1.6 but you are trying to run it with a 1.5 JVM. Although Java is backwards compatible (a 1.6 JVM will run 1.5 code) it does not work the other way round.
