How to compile and build Java eclipse code through Jenkins pipeline?

I have local copy of Git java code.I want a pipeline job script in Jenkins that can compile and build the code locally and show success or failure .

I need a script which use only Java JDK not the maven (as the source code is developed using eclipse java project).

The os i am using is windows.

pipeline {
    agent any

    stages {  
        stage ("build") {
            tools {
               jdk "jdk-1.8.0_181"
            }
            steps {
                sh 'java -version'
            }
        }          
   }}

I am getting below error

org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed: WorkflowScript: 7: Tool type "jdk" does not have an install of "jdk-1.8.0_181" configured - did you mean "Oracle JDK 8"? @ line 7, column 24. jdk 'jdk-1.8.0_181' ^

1 error

The tools section is expecting you to provide the Name to a specific item in your Global Tool Configuration (https://JENKINS_HOME/configureTools, or Manage Jenkins -> Configure Global Tools).

On that page, when you click on the JDK installations... button, it will give you a list of all of the JDKs that are configured. Your pipeline step needs to specify one of the items by Name instead of by Version.

Based on the error hint, I suspect there is one called Oracle JDK 8; you just need to verify that it is pointing to the appropriate version and update your pipeline section to read:

tools {
    jdk "Oracle JDK 8"
}

Reference: The Jenkins Pipeline Syntax page's tools example includes the following note (emphasis theirs):

The tool name must be pre-configured in Jenkins under Manage Jenkins → Global Tool Configuration.
