When importing Java projects, the probability of this problem is high.

To solve this problem, reopening or modifying the contents of the pom file (Maven project) is likely to cause the JDK version to change back to 1.5. If the project is a pojd file, you can specify the relevant information:

<build>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
                <configuration>
                    <source>1.7</source>
                    <target>1.7</target>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
