![]() Here’s how it works: jabba to install different JDK versions So, like a good developer I did some Googling and stumbled across this helpful StackOverflow post, and ultimately settled on using both jabba and jEnv - the former to install versions and the latter to configure them on a per-directory basis. There are now a variety of Java versions and vendor distributions available, and I wanted to find a way to easily switch between different versions of the JDK without needing to actually update my system’s version of Java or manually set JAVA_HOME each time.īasically, the same way I can use different versions of Ruby, Node, and CFML, thanks to rbenv, nvm, and CommandBox, respectively, it seemed I should be able to easily use different versions of Java, and not be tied to my system’s default version. This was due, at least in part, to the changes Oracle made to their Java licensing and release cycle. One of my goals for the coming months is to improve my proficiency with Java that is, to put some real knowledge behind my current patchwork understanding, pieced together over the years via trial-and-error.īefore diving into Java training courses on Udemy, Youtube, etc, I wanted to make sure that I had a way to use different versions of the JDK on my machine.
