Hello, I configured everything to use JDK 1.8, but still my application fail to start.

Execution Error: org.springframework.beans.factory.parsing.BeanDefinitionParsingException: Configuration problem: @Configuration class ‘DemoApplication’ may not be final. Remove the final modifier to continue.

I know that my answer will not be very satisfying, but I strongly recommend to use IntelliJ IDEA with Kotlin! Last time I tried Eclipse with Kotlin it was very disappointing, practically unusable.

The eclipse plugin evolved a lot last 6 months. And I need to work with Spring Boot on some open source projects, but I can’t afford a license.

@joserodrigo: May I ask you what do you see in `Kotlin Compiler` tab in `Properties` window of your project?

It already has Java 1.8. The error `Editor Error: Cannot inline bytecode built with JVM target 1.8 into bytecode that is being built with JVM target 1.6. Please specify proper ‘-jvm-target’ option` seens to be only a IDE error because Maven Install/Build works.

Oh I see now. It is definitely a symptom of bug known to us and we are currently working on resolving it. We will update you as soon as we have it resolved.

The bug should be fixed for both gradle and maven in version 0.8.16.4. You can get it right now form our nightly update site: [https://teamcity.jetbrains.com/guestAuth/repository/download/Kotlin\_EclipsePlugin/.lastSuccessful/](https://teamcity.jetbrains.com/guestAuth/repository/download/Kotlin_EclipsePlugin/.lastSuccessful/)  
Let me know if it helped.

Thanks.  
After doing that, the error about Java 1.8 disappeared. But the application still fail to run.

Does `spring` or `all-open` plugins are enabled in project properties?

Thanks. Explicitly activating them on Window \> Preferences \> Kotlin \> Compiler solved that.

I thought that it was not necessary since there is a “(Inherited)” right there.
