I'm working on a React Native application and I'm getting an error when compiling Android linked to the react-native-reanimated library or the Java version. Here are the details :

My versions :

• React native : 0.72.3
• react-native-reanimated : 3.9.0-rc.1
• Gradle : 8.0.1
• Kotlin : 1.8.10
• Groovy : 3.0.13
• Plugin Android Gradle : 7.4.2
• JVM : 17.0.10
• Java : 17

This is the error I get when I try to build :

/Users/me/Documents/Projects/my-project/node_modules/react-native-reanimated/android/src/main/java/com/swmansion/reanimated/NodesManager.java:440: error: switch rules are not supported in -source 11 case "opacity" -> { ^ (use -source 14 or higher to enable switch rules)

/Users/me/Documents/Projects/my-project/node_modules/react-native-reanimated/android/src/main/java/com/swmansion/reanimated/layoutReanimation/AnimationsManager.java:356: error: pattern matching in instanceof is not supported in -source 11 if (props.get(Snapshot.TRANSFORM_MATRIX) instanceof ReadableNativeArray matrixArray) { ^ (use -source 16 or higher to enable pattern matching in instanceof)

Steps I tried :

1. Gradle configuration : I added this in android/app/build.gradle, but nothing changed, it didn't fix my problem :

   android {
    compileOptions {
       sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_17
       targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_17
    }
   }
   

2. Cleaning and reconstruction :

• I ran ./gradlew clean in the android directory.

• I rebuilt with npx react-native run-android.

Questions :

• How can this problem be resolved so that the project uses Java 17?

• Is it possible that incompatibilities in my dependencies are preventing the Java version from being updated correctly?

• Is there a specific version of the library that could correct this?

Thanks in advance !

I fixed it, just change on my package.json my version of react-native-reanimated :

"^3.9.0-rc.1" 

to

"3.9.0-rc.1"

I delete the "^".
