Setup and Install JDK 8, 9, 10 in macOS with Homebrew

README.md

Oracle now force user to signup and accept the license agreement in the oracle website.

JDK 8 is still mostly used among java developer especially Android Developer.

Unfortunately, if we're on macOS there's a bad news that the homebrew community delete the entire JAVA/JDk cask and give replacement support to use AdoptOpenJDK.

brew tap adoptopenjdk/openjdk

brew cask install adoptopenjdk8
brew cask install adoptopenjdk9
brew cask install adoptopenjdk10
brew cask install adoptopenjdk11

It's been while since I wrote this gist, looks like openjdk is used as cask now, instead of adoptopenjdk. Will check on it later @alouanemed

To stay with a specific major release, activate the AdoptOpenJDK tap with brew tap and then install the desired version with brew cask install:

$ brew tap AdoptOpenJDK/openjdk
$ brew cask install <version>

To install AdoptOpenJDK 14 with HotSpot, run:

$ brew tap AdoptOpenJDK/openjdk
$ brew cask install adoptopenjdk14
