To set JAVA_HOME: $ jenv enable-plugin exportĪn option that I am starting to really like for running applications on my local computer is to use Docker. To see all the installed java: $ jenv versionsĪbove command will give the list of installed java: * system (set by /Users/lyncean/.jenv/version)Ĭonfigure the java version which you want to use: $ jenv global oracle64-1.6.0.39 $ jenv add /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.11.0_2.jdk/Contents/Home $ echo 'eval "$(jenv init -)"' > ~/.bash_profileĪdd the installed java to jenv: $ jenv add /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_202.jdk/Contents/Home $ echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.jenv/bin:$PATH"' > ~/.bash_profile Install and configure jenv: $ brew install jenv If you want to install/manage multiple version then you can use 'jenv': To install java 8: $ brew cask install adoptopenjdk/openjdk/adoptopenjdk8 To install latest java: $ brew cask install java Install cask (with Homebrew 0.9.5 or higher, cask is included so skip this step): $ brew tap caskroom/cask Why doesn't Oracle's installer put it where it really goes? And how can I work around this problem?Īssumption: Mac machine and you already have installed homebrew. Ironically, the "Java" control panel under System Preferences shows only Java 1.8! usr/libexec/java_home -V still only lists the old Java 1.6. I've tried adding a symbolic link to make it look like 1.8 is in the /System/Library.

But /usr/libexec/java_home doesn't find 1.8, so all the posts I've found on how to set your current java version don't work. Not sure why the latest installer puts this in /Library instead of /System/Library (nor what the difference is). I ran Oracle's Java 8 installer, and the files look like they ended up at /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_05.jdkīut previous versions are at /System/Library/Java/JavaFrameworks/jdk1.6.

I'm using IntelliJ 13 CE and Mac OS X 9 Mavericks. I want to do some programming with the latest JavaFX, which requires Java 8.
