Switch JDK

Seamless JDK updation via CLI

Showcase
Java Developers typically work with multiple JDK versions on their computer. This repo aids Windows users to seamlessly change their JDK version via CLI

Usage

  1. Clone the repo

    git clone https://github.com/abhivemp/switchjdk.git

  2. Open your environmental variables. Under your system variables, create a JAVA_HOME variable. This variable needs to hold the path to one of your JDKs. Note: This JDK version needs to be the same in your user variables as well

  3. Make sure your second JDK version is installed in the right place. Note: It's usually in your C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-10

  4. Change the paths of both JDK versions and rename the files accordingly

  5. You can now run the batch script by their name.
