$ /opt/jdk1.8.0/bin/java -version
java version "1.8.0-ea"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0-ea-b117)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 25.0-b59, mixed mode)
means you have install JDK1.8.0 successfully. But when you enter the command without specifying path:
$ java -version
$ javac -version
It will show the version of the original version, may be 1.7.0_40.
In order to make the new JDK8 as default java and javac, we can run update-alternatives.
- In order to run update-alternatives on Raspberry Pi, we have to "Set password of root", such that we can log-in as root by the command and password:
$su
Then run the commands:
$sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javac javac /opt/jdk1.8.0/bin/javac 1
$sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /opt/jdk1.8.0/bin/java 1
Run the commands to select the expected Java.
$sudo update-alternatives --config javac
$sudo update-alternatives --config java
You can verify your setting by run the Java example in next post to List system properties.
