    The cause:  The error java javactask source release 1.7 requires target release 1.7 occurred when compiling in idea, specifically while compiling module ‘qqqq’.

    Solution: 

    In order to set the correct version of the byte code version of the associated Module,

    Set setting>>Compiler>>Java Compiler in idea.
    You must include the following code in the pom.xml setup file if it is a maven project:

    <profiles>
<profile>

<id>jdk-1.7</id>
<activation>

<activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault>
<jdk>1.7</jdk>
</activation>

<properties>

<maven.compiler.source>1.7</maven.compiler.source>
<maven.compiler.target>1.7</maven.compiler.target>
<maven.compiler.compilerVersion>1.7</maven.compiler.compilerVersion>
</properties>

</profile>

</profiles>

    This can solve the issue of the maven project compiling automatically switching back to jdk1.5.
