Versions 3.2 and lower store the Java home preference (plus all the other JVM stuff) in the nf file, which is in the sqldeveloper\bin directory.If you’re too lazy to go read that post, here’s the basic gist: If you don’t get prompted, and SQL Developer refuses to start, read this post. If you get prompted, just paste in the path to the JDK. How do I tell SQL Developer WHICH Java to use?
#Oracle sql developer latest version install#
Or you can go really rogue and install Java 8 on a different machine, and copy the directory over to your computer – this is the same net effect of grabbing the embedded download.
You can just grab the Windows 64 Embedded JDK download – this won’t hurt anything, because Java is technically not installed. You can then tell SQL Developer to explicitly use that copy of Java 8 by supplying the directory path. That might cause problems with your older applications. Check your various PATH settings to make sure Java 8 isn’t listed first. You can install Java 8 side-by-side with your other Javas – doing this might cause problems. You can upgrade Java on your machine – probably not a good idea if you have applications that require specific versions of Java. And, there’s a new feature that requires Java FX, which runs best in JDK’s numbered 8 and higher. Why are you making us run Java 8?īecause Java 6 and 7 are old, and Java 8 is better, faster, and more secure. Not today, but there will be a 64-bit bundle available soon. Will there be a Windows download available that includes a JDK? When IS version 4.1 going to be available? As we get nearer to releasing our next update for Oracle SQL Developer, there are a few FAQ’s I’d like to answer.
