How to use Soot process java source code

Question

I use the following command to process java file

   -src-prec java  -cp "/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_25.jdk/Contents/Home/jre/lib/rt.jar:/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_25.jdk/Contents/Home/jre/lib/jce.jar" -process-dir "/Users/.../test/src" -f jimple

I got error when process java source, how to solve it?

I suggest you read the error message so we can work out what it is trying to tell you. — Peter Lawrey, Aug 28 '15 at 13:39

yep, I think this bug is related with the jdk, I use java 1.8, this bug occurs. When I turn to 1.7, it works well. – csytang Sep 01 '15 at 01:12
What do you mean by "using Java 8"? Do you execute Soot using Java 8 or do process Java 8 code with Soot? – Eric Sep 02 '15 at 06:00
Sorry, I have to make it clear. I execute Soot using Java 8 instead of processing Java 8 code. I find some issues raised at Soot's git. – csytang Sep 02 '15 at 06:56
