  <strong>Note:</strong> To test lambda expressions and method references on

  earlier versions of Android, go to your {@code build.gradle}

  file, and set {@code compileSdkVersion} and {@code targetSdkVersion} to 23 or

  lower. You will still need to <a href="#configuration">enable the Jack

  toolchain</a> to use these Java 8 features.

  <strong>Note:</strong> Type annotation information is only available at

  compile time, and not during runtime.
