Re: Would like to install Netbeans, Open JDK 7
It has been a while since I tried installing it, and never started doing any real development in it, but this is what I did:
1. Download the Oracle jdk7. Extract it in any folder where you like and note the path.
2. Install netbeans and in the GUI installer there is a field to put the jdk7 path (if I remember correctly). That will tell it to use the jdk7 you want.
That should be it.
On global level in ubuntu, if you want the whole system to use the jdk7 you have to update the java alternatives and specify to use the jdk7 instead of the openjdk. I don't remember the syntax correctly but it's easy to find it in google searching for update java alternatives in ubuntu, or similar.
