Install

dotnet tool install -g JavaVersionSwitcher

Usage

This tool is tested and works on windows. I'm not sure if anything works on non-windows systems. (In fact I am quite sure that it will probably not work at all on non-windows systems.)

REM show all java versions currently installed
dotnet jvs scan

REM check if the java setup is "ok". (Checks %PATH% and %JAVA_HOME%)
dotnet jvs check

REM switch to another java version
dotnet jvs switch

Changes to the system

After running dotnet jvs switch the environment variables JAVA_HOME and PATH will be modified. It is necessary to close the current terminal and open a new one to refresh the environment.
