System Preferences with Java control panelĪnd don’t forget to setup the JAVA_HOME environment variable by creating. Unless you’re content with JDK6, you can easily install JDK7 from Oracle website and follow the steps in here. In the end of the installation process, you should check the “java” and “javac” version and you should also have Java control panel in “System Preferences”.
JDKĪpple actually has already provided its own JDK (it will prompt you to install it actually), but unfortunately it is still JDK 6. Hence, here I present how I setup my Java development environment. And I found that setting up my usual Java development environment is not as straightforward as in Linux (the steps are similar, but not the same!!). I’ve just received my new MacBook Pro, and just upgraded to OS X 10.9.1. I have been busy mainly with my job with LARC (and other extra commitments such as classes at Masjid) and could not allocate time to continue updating this blog :(. But from now, I’ll allocate one of my weekends every month to update this blog.
