[neuroConstruct] Does neuroConstruct support Java compiler 1.7?

[Padraig Gleeson]

Hi,

I've tried with Java 1.7 on my Ubuntu and it works fine. I'd highly 
recommend trying to recompile the code using nC.sh as outlined below. 
This should show up any issues with the code/version of Java.

Make sure you have the JDK (developer tools including javac) installed 
to recompile the code (I assume you're using the OpenJDK version of 
Java?). If you've still issues or have further questions, mail me directly.

Regards,
Padraig
