How to install a second JVM?


I am working on a Linux Ubuntu 8.10 and I would like to install a second JVM. I am currently working with Java 1.6, but I want to install Java 1.4 and afterwards, set the 1.4 JVM as my default JVM, to work with. How could I do that? Thanks in advance!


Solution

  • Just install the package you want. After that you're able to switch java implementations using update-java-alternatives
