I have the same problem. I have to work on a code my school sent me as an assignment, where they asked me to work with java 1.8, but the gradle version is 4.10.3 and if I understood correctly, I should either work with a 2.0 version of gradle or I should update java to version 9. Is it correct? Unfortunately I can't find the 2.0 version and I don't know how to solve this problem
