I imported a java project(war file) to eclipse. When I tried to run it , I got following error :

java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problems: 
The type List is not generic; it cannot be parameterized with arguments <User>
Syntax error, parameterized types are only available if source level is 5.0

I tried to google it. I found that I have to change compliance settings. I changed the compiler compliance level to 5 but it did not solve the problem. Can anybody help me to solve this problem? Thanks in advance.

    There are two things you might have to take care of.

    1. The compiler setting.
    2. The runtime setting.

    I guess you should have taken care of (1). What you may have missed is the second one. When you try to run that war file, go to “Run As” –> “Run configurations”. There you can select the Java version. I assume this is the place you are having an issue. Try setting it to Java 1.5 or higher.
