Easily switch between java versions with SDKMAN! and 'j'
Dec 30, 2022
You usually want to keep your projects up-to-date to the latest java version. But sometimes that is not possible.
Then you need to switch between different java versions, depending on the project you are working.
SDKMAN!
https://sdkman.io/ is my recommended tool for the job.
But it has one downside:
In my day-to-day development job I usually don’t care much about java’s patch versions. And I usually don’t care about using amazon corretto, OpenJDK, Oracle or Zulu java.
I don’t want to remember the specific vendor and subversion, I just want some java 17.
This is where “j” comes in:
j↗ is an easy to use, but hard to google script that does a best guess of my desired java version.
So I just type
j 17
and I get some java 17.
btw.:
For switching versions of node.js and npm I use node version manager
Happy new year!
