Download Java Jdk 8 For Mac From Oracle
Developed and released by Oracle, the freeware has been specifically created for Java content. Two additional platforms that were created by Oracle are the Java Development Kit and the Java Virtual Machine: the JDK and JVM. The Java Runtime Environment edition does not include the development tools that are needed to create Java programs. @SomaiahKumbera That's kinda stupid, right. Although I download Xcode and other developer tools and I never had any problem from the apple website. But just to download the Java SE, it doesn't let me?! I haven't even downloaded an IDE for java and you won't even let me download the Java SE. – yousafe007 Jun 8 '16 at 18:27.
If you would like to learn Java programming, the best way is by writing Java codes by yourself. To compile the Java codes then you need Java Development Kit (JDK). It can be Oracle JDK or OpenJDK. This post guides you how to install Oracle JDK 8 on Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite. It should be also applicable for previous version of OS X such as OS X Maverick, Mountain Lion, and OS X Lion. At the time of this post written, the latest version of JDK is JDK 8 Update 25.
Basically I previously had written an article how to install Java SE 7 / JDK 7 on Mac OS X Lion. I just would like to rewrite on the newest version.
1. Download Oracle JDK 8 from Oracle website. You need to accept license agreement to be able to download the file. Make sure you select the Mac OS X x64 platform (jdk-8u25-macosx-x64.dmg).
2. Double-click the downloaded file ‘jdk-8u25-macosx-x64.dmg’ and follow the on-screen installation.
3. Once it is successfully installed, it is installed inside /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines folder.
4. Verify that the system is now using JDK 8.
5. If you would like to uninstall JDK 8, simply remove the jdk1.8.0_25.jdk
