$ java -version

java version "1.7.0_79"

OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.5.6) (7u79-2.5.6-0ubuntu1.12.04.1)

OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.79-b02, mixed mode)

现在需要安装JDK_1.6

安装在/opt/java/jdk1.6.0_45

/opt/java/jdk1.6.0_45# ls

bin     db    jre  LICENSE  README.html  THIRDPARTYLICENSEREADME.txt

COPYRIGHT  include  lib  man    src.zip

加上环境变量

用户环境变量：~/.bashrc中增加行

export JAVA_HOME=/opt/java/jdk1.6.0_45

export JRE_HOME=$JAVA_HOME/jre

export CLASSPATH=.:$JAVA_HOME/lib/dt.jar:$JRE_HOME/lib/tools.jar

export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin:$JRE_HOME/bin

export USE_CCACHE=1

系统环境变量：/etc/profile中增加行

export JAVA_HOME=/opt/java/jdk1.6.0_45

export JRE_HOME=$JAVA_HOME/jre

export CLASSPATH=.:$JAVA_HOME/lib/dt.jar:$JRE_HOME/lib/tools.jar

export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin:$JRE_HOME/bin

export USE_CCACHE=1

通过update-alternatives切换软件版本

增加JDK_1.6的命令连接符，使用--install选项

$ sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /opt/java/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/java 1062

如需移除，--remove选项

$ sudo update-alternatives --remove /usr/bin/java java /opt/java/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/java 1062

创建默认命令链接 --config

$ sudo update-alternatives --config java

There are 2 choices for the alternative java (providing /usr/bin/java).

 Selection   Path                  Priority Status

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

* 0   /opt/java/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/java         1062    auto mode

 1   /opt/java/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/java         1062    manual mode

 2   /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java  1051    manual mode

Press enter to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number:0

同理Python也可以这样切换

更为详细的英文引用mark如下：

Use Oracle Java JDK, by following the steps below:

• Visit http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/java-archive-downloads-javase6-419409.html

• Accept the license agreement

• Download jdk-6uXX-linux-x64.bin (where XX is the latest minor version)

• If you don't have an Oracle account and don't want to create one, you can have a look at http://bugmenot.com/view/oracle.com

Here is how to configure Oracle Java JDK to be the default on Ubuntu:

cd /usr/lib/jvm && sudo /bin/sh ~/Downloads/jdk-6u38-linux-x64.bin -noregister

Note: You might get /bin/sh: jdk-6u43-linux-x64.bin: Permission denied error. This happens because root does not permissions to read the ~/Downloads folder.

Option 1: Temporarily change the permissions of ~/Downloads folder for root to have read permission.

chmod 755 ~/Downloads/

Don’t forget to change it back once you are done!

Option 2: Copy the downloaded file to /usr/lib/jvm and do

sudo /bin/sh jdk-6u38-linux-x64.bin -noregister

In either case, then set it as default.

sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javac javac /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_38/bin/javac 50000
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_38/bin/java 50000
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javaws javaws /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_38/bin/javaws 50000
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javap javap /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_38/bin/javap 50000
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/jar jar /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_38/bin/jar 50000
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/jarsigner jarsigner /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_38/bin/jarsigner 50000
sudo update-alternatives --config javac
sudo update-alternatives --config java
sudo update-alternatives --config javaws
sudo update-alternatives --config javap
sudo update-alternatives --config jar
sudo update-alternatives --config jarsigner

Also make sure /usr/bin/java is first in your $PATH. i.e.

which java

should return /usr/bin/java.
