Hi guys, I am not sure if I posed here is correct or not, I have an issue with Java SE 8 in Eclipse, but I can't find the section for Java SE at all. But please kindly help. Here is the problem, I installed Java 1.8_05 in Eclipse, but somehow it doesn't recognize the "default" keyword in an interface at all. I created a simple interface, but it gave a compile-time error as below:

public interface Simple {

    default void eat() {            //Here, on this line in Eclipse, it highlights the "default" keyword with a red error indicator at the beginning of the line and tells me to delete the "default" token.

     System.out.println("Eat");

    }

}

I don't know how to correct this, please please help. Thank you very very much for your time and everything.
