System Requirements for Installing the JDK on macOS

Feb 27, 2013  I believe this works because /usr/libexec/javahome is a symbolic link to the actual JAVAHOME location. Wrapping it in $ resolves the path during execution. Jul 16, 2012  Since Lion 10.7.1 10.6.8 MacOSx Snow Leopard (correct me if wrong), Mac OS X comes with Apache Maven 3 built in, and can be located at /usr/share/maven 1. Maven Built-In. I am having an issue with Java in my Mac (OS X 10.7.3). Previously I installed it and it was working fine. After some changes in the.bashprofile and.profile file in the course of time, I am havi. How are Java updates managed on macOS? Every time you start a Java applet or a Java Web Start (JWS) application, the system starts your program and determines in the background (so that performance of your Java application is not affected) if it has checked for.

The following are the system requirements for installing the JDK on macOS:

  • Any Intel-based computer running macOS.

  • Administrator privileges.

    You cannot install Java for a single user. Installing the JDK on macOS is performed on a systemwide basis for all users. Administrator privileges are required to install the JDK on macOS.

Determining the Default JDK Version on macOS

When starting a Java application through the command line, the system uses the default JDK.

There can be multiple JDKs installed on the macOS system.

You can determine which version of the JDK is the default by entering java -version in a Terminal window. If the installed version is 12 Interim 0, Update 0, and Patch 0, then you see a string that includes the text 12. For example:

To run a different version of Java, either specify the full path, or use the java_home tool. For example:

$ /usr/libexec/java_home -v 12 --exec javac -version

Installing the JDK on macOS

  1. Download the JDK .dmg file, jdk-12.interim.update.patch-macosx-x64.dmg.

    Before the file can be downloaded, you must accept the license agreement.

  2. From either the browser Downloads window or from the file browser, double-click the .dmg file to start it.
    A Finder window appears that contains an icon of an open box and the name of the .pkg file.
  3. Double-click the JDK 12.pkg icon to start the installation application.
    The installation application displays the Introduction window.
  4. Click Continue.
  5. Click Install.
    A window appears that displays the message: Installer is trying to install new software. Enter your password to allow this.
  6. Enter the Administrator user name and password and click Install Software.
    The software is installed and a confirmation window is displayed.
After the software is installed, you can delete the .dmg file if you want to save disk space.

Uninstalling the JDK on macOS

You must have Administrator privileges.

Note:

Do not attempt to uninstall Java by removing the Java tools from /usr/bin. This directory is part of the system software and any changes will be reset by Apple the next time that you perform an update of the OS.

  1. Go to /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines.
  2. Remove the directory whose name matches the following format by executing the rm command as a root user or by using the sudo tool:
    /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-interim.update.patch.jdk

    For example, to uninstall 12 Interim 0 Update 0 Patch 0:

    $ rm -rf jdk-12.jdk

Installation FAQ on macOS Platform

This topic provides answers for the following frequently asked questions about installing JDK on macOS computers.

1. How do I find out which version of Java is the system default?

When you run a Java application from the command line, it uses the default JDK. If you do not develop Java applications, then you do not need to worry about this. See Determining the Default JDK Version on macOS.

2. How do I uninstall Java?

See Uninstalling the JDK on macOS.

3. After installing Java for macOS 2012-006, can I continue to use Apple's Java 6 alongside the macOS JDK for Java 12?

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:

Java_home

$ export JAVA_HOME=`/usr/libexec/java_home -v 12`

Some applications use /usr/bin/java to call Java. After installing Java for macOS 2012-006, /usr/bin/java will find the newest JDK installed, and will use that for all of the Java-related command-line tools in /usr/bin. You may need to modify those applications to find Java 6, or contact the developer for a newer version of the application.

4. Can I restore Apple Java after uninstalling Oracle Java?

Go back to Apple Java using the following instructions:

  1. Uninstall Oracle Java by deleting the plug-in file. From a command-line, enter:

    $ sudo rm -rf '/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin'

  2. Create a symlink using the following command, entered on a single line:

    $ sudo ln -s /System/Library/Java/Support/CoreDeploy.bundle/Contents/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin '/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin'

5. What happened to the Java Preferences app in Application Utilities?

The Java Preferences app was part of the Apple Java installation and is not used by Oracle Java. Therefore, macOS releases from Apple that do not include Apple Java will not include Java Preferences.

The R script uses rJava and RJDBC packages to load tables from database. In Mac OS X, to correctly load this packages
requires the following steps borrowed from https://github.com/snowflakedb/dplyr-snowflakedb/wiki/Configuring-R-rJava-RJDBC-on-Mac-OS-X.
Steps have been modified to reflect problems (and it's solutions) reported here.

Overview

Java_home Library Mac Torrent

This is the list of software downloads needed in order to connect R via RJDBC to a database:

  • Xcode Command Line Tools
  • Java 6
  • Java 8
  • R
  • rJava source package
  • Database JDBC jar file
  • RStudio (optional)

If you have any of this software already installed, you can skip that section.

Open Terminal.app

We'll change to the Downloads directory as we'll have to download some packages from the internet.

Just to make debugging easier if something does not go as planned, log all output.

Xcode Command Line Tools

Mac

We need Xcode Command Line Tools, by running this command we will invoke the downloader if not installed, otherwise it will report it is already installed.

Java 6

Install the legacy Java 6 runtime which is needed despite us not going to use Java 6.

Now walk through the install to complete.

Java 8

Install Java 8. Note: newer versions may be available.

Now walk through the install to complete.

We'll run these two commands to output Java installations and what the current command defaults to. They are informative only.

You should see something like this:

R for OS X

Download and install the R package for OS X.

Now walk through the install to complete.

Now we need to tell R to use our Java 8 as it's JAVA_HOME

You should see output similar to

Now install rJava from source and compile it against the Java 8 JDK.The 'unset JAVA_HOME' takes care of:

Now let's check that rJava can be loaded correctly and returns the correct JDK version.This command should return the string 1.8.0_111-b14 (or whatever Java 8 version you installed).

Finish

Exit from the script logging.

Using RStudio.app or R.app

A common error when trying to load rJava in RStudio is:

There are three ways to get around this problem and use rJava with RStudio or R console (R.app) :

1 - Launching from the command line

You can launch it from the command line in Terminal.app like such:

This is a known limitation with RStudio on OS X. See this link for more details:[https://support.rstudio.com/hc/communities/public/questions/200650933-rJava-fails-to-load-in-RStudio-Desktop-OS-X](https://support.rstudio.com/hc/communities/public/questions/200650933-rJava-fails-to-load-in-RStudio-Desktop-OS-X)

2 - Make a symlink to libjvm.dylib

This is an alternate solution to loading RStudio, but must be updated any time you upgrade Java

+Based on this Stack Overflow thread, one can use the following to work around the libjvm.dylib loading issues.

3 - Load the library in the script (which is the used approach in the CohortEx R script)

Just a bit of code in your R script:
