For emacs. If you are using fish and you are using mac and you want to be able to switch between JDK's, then below works for me on mac. If you have multiple versions and you want to run something by using a specific version, use this example:.
Previously I used alias'es in. SDKMAN can also handle setting default java for the system, and downloading and installing new java versions. Once sdkman is installed you can then do commands similar to what is possible with the nvm tool for handling node versions.
A feature I also use regularly is the. If you place that in a directory on your machine and run the sdk env command in the directory then you can configure tool versions used only in that directory.
Based on markhellewell answer I created a couple of alias functions that will do it for you. Just add these to your shell startup file. On my machine when install jdk by hand, I keep the minor version, then make a soft link with the major version but without the minor version. I'm using this fish function I wrote :. It basically automates the step in this answer , similarly to this one , but also taking care of setting the PATH.

It will simply be ignored by system's java command. Hugues M. Apparently this is the one that the new Preferences pane will launch -- this is the only exception I found to my solution: that thingy will still use JDK9 latest I installed , but no other Java application does.
Exactly, this is the best and the most functional solution for this question. Unfortunately so. I cannot thank you enough for this answer. This fixed launching applications from the OS launcher.

You can download the latest version of Java from Java SE Downloads , which has improved security, reliability, and compatibility. If you want to continue to develop with Java 6 using command-line, then you can modify the startup script for your favorite command environment.
For bash, use this:. You may need to modify those applications to find Java 6, or contact the developer for a newer version of the application.
I am running Mountain Lion macOS What is going on? Gatekeeper, introduced in Mountain Lion macOS When you attempt to start an app that does not meet certain criteria, Gatekeeper will block it.
To override this, you can modify the Gatekeeper's default settings to App Store and identified developers from Settings , General , and Allow apps downloads from section. To create a Java application that will start without interruption under the default Gatekeeper settings, the app must be bundled with a JRE, use Oracle's launcher stub, and be signed with an Apple Developer ID.
This is correct. I have Oracle's version of the JRE installed, but when I try to run the java command from the command line, it does not work. Installing a JRE from Oracle does not update java -version symlinks or add the java command to your path. For this functionality, you must install the full JDK. The Java Preferences application, started by selecting Applications and then Utilities , is part of Apple's implementation of Java. After Apple no longer distributes Java as part of their release, the Java Preferences application is retired.
The Java Preferences application was used to determine the first compatible version that would be used. Java applications and command-line tools use the listed order to determine the first compatible version to use. The Vendor column indicates whether the Java release is supplied by Apple or Oracle. The Version column specifies the version of Java that is installed. In this way, we can always switch to our preferred JDK by simply executing the.
It will simply pick the highest version installed on the system. Though, we can switch the active Java on the terminal using the. The third-party solution jenv might be helpful in certain situations.
We can disable a specific version of Java by renaming its Info. This will prevent Mac to consider the Java version with Info. It will still consider the highest version as the default Java. JDK JDK 1. If we rename Info. It might differ on your system.
