Java update?

I'm running Java 8 with a lower build number (211 if I remember right, but 
I'm not at my Mac to check right now.) Java is required to build LC apps 
for Android, which I do all the time. If you look in LC mobile preferences 
you'll see the place where you need to specify your Java installation.
