3 Steps to Install OpenJDK 11 on macOS
<p>This article will show you how to deinstall all preinstalled JDK from the mac OS and then install OpenJDK 11 on it. I used macOS Big Sur (11.7.2) as example.</p>
<p>TL;DR</p>
<pre>
sudo rm -fr /Users/yourUserName/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/*
sudo rm -fr /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/*
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
brew install openjdk@11
sudo ln -sfn /usr/local/opt/openjdk@11/libexec/openjdk.jdk /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/openjdk-11.jdk
java -version</pre>
<ol>
<li><strong><em>Deinstall all JDK</em></strong></li>
<li><strong><em>Install OpenJDK 11 via brew</em></strong></li>
<li><strong><em>Symlink JDK and check JDK version</em></strong></li>
<li>What’s Next</li>
</ol>
<h2>1. Deinstall all JDK</h2>
<p>1.1 Firstly, execute followed command in Terminal to check if Java is installed on your laptop.</p>
<pre>
java -version</pre>
<p>1.2 No JDK installed.<br />
If the output of step 1.1 is something like the text followed, it means that there is no JDK installed in your system. You can then jump to step 2 “Install OpenJDK 11 via brew”.</p>
