I am using Netbeans 6.7. I had first installed Java 1.5 before installing Netbeans. When i installed Netbeans it took Java 1.5 as the default version. Then i installed Java 1.6 on my machine. I need to change the default JDK of my netbeans to 1.6 not only to a specific project but to the whole Netbeans application.
To do so, in NetBeans, go to Tools menu and select Java platforms. In the opening dialog do click on the Add Platform… button. In the opening window navigate to the folder where the JDK you want to add is installed, select it and click on the Next button.
Enabling JDK 8 Support in NetBeans IDE In the IDE, choose Tools > Java Platforms from the main menu. Click Add Platform in the Java Platform Manager dialog. In the Add Java Platform dialog, select Java Standard Edition and click Next. Specify the directory that contains the JDK and click Next.
You can change the JDK for Netbeans by modifying the config file:
netbeans.conf
file available under etc
folder inside the NetBeans installation. netbeans_jdkhome
variable to point to new JDK path, and then If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
