I have already installed MinGW32. I want to update MinGW32, GCC, and G++ on the latest available version. I have searched on the internet and overflow but the answers seem to be outdated. One of the answers, I tried but it shows the same version of MinGW and GCC( latest version is 10.2 and I have 9.2.0) as before.
Moreover, my machine is 64 bit so I want to upgrade my MinGW to MinGW64 but despite lots of efforts and internet searches, I am unable to get an executable setup for the system, neither cmd instructors to install. Also, I am unable to discover instructions for its updating to the latest version available( for future purposes)
Please help me to accomplish the above tasks. Also, it would be better if the step by step instructors are provided using cmd. Thanks in advance.
The MinGW-w64 personal build from http://winlibs.com/ has the latest GCC version (currently 10.1) and requires no installation, just unzip the download.
If you need to upgrade this later you can just replace the mingw32 or mingw64 folder with the new version.
I want to install YouCompleteMe, on Mac OSX, early 2015.
I have installed it under guidance of Mac OSX part. However, I got one warning:
NoExtraConfDetected: No .ycm_extra_conf.py file detected.
Then I read the full installation guide, and know that I should Download the latest version of libclang. However, there are so many source code on the official webpage of LLVM, and I don't know what to install (figure below).
So, could you please tell me, which one I should install?
Thanks!
If you go to http://llvm.org/releases/download.html#3.8.0 you can see Pre-Build binaries for MacOsX that's what you need to download and extract. Once you extract this. You will need to source it's location using the path variable.
Now, You can also install clang using brew from the terminal.
brew install --with-clang llvm
Having deleted the Studio 3, which was working, and installing a new one, the first launch produced the message: "Failed to load the JNI Shared Library: 'C:...java.jdk1.8.0_05\bin..\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll'" Upon checking the indicated bin directory, the 'server' subdirectory was missing. I then installed both jre7 and jre8 as standalone jre's. Both hre7 and jre8 have the server subdirectory under bin. If I point JAVA_HOME towards one of the newer installs, I will lose ready access to the JDK. Is there any other way to tell Aptana Studio 3 which jvm to use?
This whole exercise was started in an attempt to get Aptana Studio 3 to use Ruby 2.0.0, rather than ruby 1.9.3 (both of which are installed). How might one do that? Both rubys are in the PATH, with ruby2.0.0 first. Also RUBY_HOME points to ruby2.0.0. Entering ruby -v at the command prompt yields 1.9.3.
In turn, I am doing this because I am getting a crash in 1.9.3 wich says: "You have encountered a bug in the ruby interpreter..."
You can configure which version of Java Aptana will use in AptanaStudio3.ini: simply add
-vm
C:/Program Files (x86)/Java/jdk1.7.0_21/bin/javaw.exe
(before --launcher.XXMaxPermSize) pointing to a 32bit Java version.
Make sure you have the 32-bit version of the JDK installed. This error occurs with the 64-bit version. Try and download the 32bit JDK, install and Aptana should run (at least that worked for me)
The latest Windows installer does not contain the JRE, contrary to what the page at http://www.aptana.com/products/studio3/success.html says:
The Windows installer includes a compatible version of Java.
I downloaded the 3.5 installer, installed to a different directory, and copied the JRE directory from there to the 3.6.x directory. This has resolved the issue for me.
(I suppose the installer could contain a 32-bit JRE, detect my system is a 64-bit system, and not install it, but the size difference between the two installers is enough to be accounted for by a missing JRE.)
I Was getting the same issue while loading aptana.
Fixed it with following steps.
Uninstalled available jdk7.1 (It was 64 bit)
Uninstalled aptana;
Downloaded and installed jdk7.1 32 bit.
The jvm.dll will be in the follwing path: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_75\jre\bin\client"
Re installed aptana
Thanks
I followed this guide to use paperclip http://railscasts.com/episodes/134-paperclip?language=en&view=asciicast
it is all ok but note that to enable resizing you’ll need to have ImageMagick installed on your server.
So how should i install ImageMagick ?? i have WINDOWS 8 and on the site http://www.imagemagick.org/ download does not work!!!!
It certainly works - you need to make sure of 2 things:
You install the correct static version for your OS (32-bit vs 64-bit). The 32-bit (x86) will work regardless, the 64-bit (x64) will only work on a 64-bit system. And you need to download the static version - not the -dll version - as Paperclip needs to call the executable directly. (Of course, I'm sure that you knew that downloading the installer file isn't going to install it for you, right? That is, you need to open the file to start the installation...)
You add the bin directory to your environment path. The installer should do this for you, unless you unchecked that option.
UPDATE
Just noticed that the links are broken :) They still point to the older 6.8.5-6 version that have since been moved to legacy. You can get the latest binaries from here.
I would like to use the WatchService API as mentioned in this link:
http://download.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/essential/io/notification.html
After reading around, I found out that WatchService is part of the NIO class which is scheduled for JDK 7. So, it is in beta form. It's fine.
http://jdk7.java.net/download.html has the JDK which I downloaded and extracted. I got a bunch of folders. I don't know what to do with them.
Then, I read around some more and found that some nice group of people created JDK 7 as a binary so someone like me can install it easily. It is called Open JDK:
http://code.google.com/p/openjdk-osx-build/
So, I downloaded the .dmg file and install it. Then I open "Java Preference" and see that OpenJDK7 is available.
So, now I feel that I can start trying out WatchService API. From the tutorial in the first link, the author gave a .java file to test it out first and make sure that it is running. Here is the link to the file:
http://download.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/essential/io/examples/WatchDir.java
So, I boot up Eclipse (actually I use STS) and create a new Java project and choose JaveSE-1.7 in the "use an execution environment JRE:". Under the src folder, I copy pasted the WatchDir.java file.
And I still see tons of squiggly red lines. All the "import.java.nio.*" are all red and I cannot run it as a Java app.
What do I need to do?
This is how I got 1.7 to work with Eclipse. I hope it helps.
I Downloaded the latest OpenJDK 1.7 universal (32/64 bits) JDK
from Mac OS/X branch from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk7-downloads-1880260.html
copied the jdk to /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/ next to the
default 1.6.0 one
In Eclipse > Preferences > Java > Installed JREs you add a new one, of type MacOS X VM, and set the home as /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.7.0.jdk/Contents/Home and
name Java SE 7 (OpenJDK)
Click Finish
Set the added JRE as default
that should be it :)
Oracle has released JDK 7 for OS X.
Java 9, 10, 11
Years ago, Apple joined the OpenJDK project, transferring their formerly proprietary macOS-specific JVM code as free-of-cost open-source. Apple ceased distribution of their own branded JVM/JDK, relying on Oracle’s branded releases to include a version for macOS.
Oracle has recently announced their intention to bring their Oracle-branded JVM release to feature parity with the OpenJDK project, with virtually the same code base. The company even donated their previously commercial tools, Flight Recorder & Mission Control, to the OpenJDK project. This is part of the shift to a new rapid “release train” plan for predictably scheduled versioning of Java and OpenJDK. Notably, the periods for free-of-cost public updates is now shortened. See this 2017-09 announcement and this posting by Mark Reinhold.
As a result of all this, macOS users of Java have a choice of vendors for a Java implementation. At this point, at least three sources are based on OpenJDK for macOS:
Oracle releases of the JDK and JRE, with optional paid support.
Azul Systems releasing:
Zulu line of free-of-cost JVMs with optional paid support.
Zing line of commercial JVMs with special features such as an alternate garbage-collector.
OpenJDK source code, roll-your-own compilation & installation (perhaps not practical for most of us).
Meanwhile, IBM donated code for a JVM to the Eclipse Foundation, now housed in the OpenJ9 project. I wonder if they might support a macOS release as well, though it is too soon to tell.
Personally, I am currently using the Zulu release of Java 10.0.1 from Azul on macOS High Sierra successfully with IntelliJ 2018.2 to produce Java-backed web apps with Vaadin.
Installation/Removal
Both Oracle and Azul provide utterly easy-to-use installers to install the JVM/JDK on your Mac. Verify your installation by using the Terminal.app (or equivalent) to type and run:
java -version
You will find the Java installations in this folder at the root level of your drive (not in your home folder):
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines
Each version from each vendor is found there, in a labeled nested folder. You can delete any installation simply by deleting the nested folder for that version and providing your system password when prompted.
Java 8
You can download the Java Development Kit (JDK) for Java 8 for the supported versions of Mac OS X:
Mountain Lion (10.8.3+)
Mavericks (10.9)
Yosemite (10.10)
El Capitan (10.11)
Each version of JVM you install can be found here:
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines
For more instructions and FAQ, see this Oracle Guide.
Java 7
For every release of Java 7 since Update 4, a Mac version has been ready alongside the other platforms. Runs on Macs with 64-bit hardware on Lion (10.7.3+), Mountain Lion (10.8.3+), and Mavericks (10.9.x).
Oracle announced the official release of the JDK for Java SE 7 Update 4 on Mac OS X (Lion), as of 2012-04-26. No more need for the tricks discussed on this page.
Installation is simple per these instructions:
Download from the usual place on the Oracle web site.
Mount the DMG.
Run the installer.
This release has a few limitations, most notably the lack of support for Java Web Start and the Java Plugin for web browsers. That support is expected later this year.
After installing, read the JDK for Mac ReadMe. Most importantly, if you want Java 7 to be the default, drag it to the top of the list in the Java Preferences app found in your Utilities folder.
Mac OS X easily supports multiple JVMs simultaneously. Each is now found here:
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines
Congratulations to the Apple & Oracle teams for their achievement. This geek gets a thrill seeing Mac OS X listed as a "Certified System Configuration".
Tip: To start Eclipse on a Mac with only Java 7 installed, open the alias file named eclipse rather than the file named Eclipse.app.
Java 6
Apple continues to supply an up-to-date implementation of Java 6 for all versions of Mac OS X up through Mountain Lion.
If you do something that requires Java, such as type "java -version" in Terminal.app, a dialog appears offering to install Java for you. If you accept, installation happens automatically similar to other "Software Updates" from Apple.
You will find Java installed in this location, different than Java 7 & 8:
/System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines
Java 6 has reached end-of-life with Oracle as of 2013-02 (unless you have a commercial support agreement with Oracle). So you should be moving to Java 7 or 8.
Testing New Version
In Terminal.app, type java -version to verify which version is the current default.
Deleting Old Versions
After installing a fresh version, you may want to visit the folder described above to delete old versions. Move the folder to the Trash, and provide your System password complete the move.
By the way, Apple provides a mailing list for developers’ technical issues related to Java on OS X.
An easy way to install Java 7 on a Mac is by using Homebrew, thanks to the Homebrew Cask plugin (which is now installed by default).
Run this command to install Java 7:
brew cask install caskroom/versions/java7
Get cask
brew tap caskroom/cask
Install java7:
brew tap caskroom/versions
brew cask install java7
(I had difficulty finding the download link of java7 on oracle website, as they're just "recommending" java8 )
EDIT January 2018 (As pointed by Ankur):
Use zulu7 cask. Zulu is a certified build of OpenJDK produced by Azul Systems that should be around for a long time (they even offer JDK6 builds still).
brew cask install caskroom/versions/zulu7
I know that some may want to smack me for re-opening old post, but if you feel so do it I just hope this may help someone else trying to set JDK 7 on Mac OS (using IntelliJ).
What I did to get this working on my machine is to:
followed instructions on Oracle JDK7 Mac OS X Port for general installation
in IntelliJ open/create new project so you can add new SDK (File > Project Structure)
select Platform Settings > SDKs, press "+" (plus) sign to add new SDK
select JSDK and navigate to /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/JDK 1.7.0 Developer Preview.jdk/Contents/Home. Do not get it mistaken with /Users/YOUR_USERNAME/Library/Java/. This will link 4 JARs from "lib" directory (dt.jar, jconsole.jar, sa-jdi.jar and tools.jar)
you will need also add JARs from /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/JDK 1.7.0 Developer Preview.jdk/Contents/Home/jre/lib (charsets.jar, jce.jar, JObjC.jar, jsse.jar, management-agent.jar, resources.jar and rt.jar)
after installing the 1.7jdk from oracle, i changed my bash scripts to add:
export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_13.jdk/Contents/Home
and then running java -version showed the right version.
It's possible that you still need to add the JDK into Eclipse (STS). Just because the JDK is on the system doesn't mean Eclipse knows where to find it.
Go to
Preferences > Java > Installed JREs
If there is not an entry for the 1.7 JDK, add it. You'll have to point Eclipse to where you installed your 1.7 JDK.
If Eclipse can't find a JRE that is 1.7 compatible, I'm guessing that it just uses your default JRE, and that's probably still pointing at Java 1.6, which would be causing your red squiggly lines.
I needed to adapt #abe312's answer since there has been some changes with brew lately.
I installed zulu7 and setup JAVA_HOME by running:
brew install --cask homebrew/cask-versions/zulu7
echo "export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/zulu-7.jdk/Contents/Home" >> ~/.zshrc
I had to enter my password for installing zulu7. You may need to modify the last command if you are using a different shell.
How about Netbeans, here is an article how to set it up with NB7:
http://netbeanside61.blogspot.com/2011/06/downloading-openjdk7-binary-for-mac-os.html
Maybe similar steps for Eclipse.
As of April 27th there is an offical Oracle release of Java SE 7u4. Download the disk image and run the installer - then see the Mac readme.
As of December 2017, previously posted links don't work, but JDK 7 can still be downloaded from Oracle Archives (login required):
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/java-archive-downloads-javase7-521261.html
The instructions by peter_budo worked perfectly. I had to add the jars under /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/JDK 1.7.0 Developer Preview.jdk/Contents/Home/jre/lib/ to my IntelliJ project libraries. Now it works like a charm. Note that I didn't need my IDE itself to run under 1.7; rather, I only needed to be able to compile and run against 1.7. I'll most likely continue to use Apple's JRE for running the IDE since it's probably more stable with respect to graphics routines (Swing, AWT). Like the OP, I was really keen on testing out the new NIO2 API. Looking good so far. Thanks, Peter.
What worked for me on Lion was installing the JDK7_u17 from Oracle, then editing ~/.bash_profile to include:
export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_13.jdk/Contents/Home
Now, Use command
Update 2020: 04
To install Java7 with homebrew run:
brew tap homebrew/cask-versions
brew cask install java7
Hope this help.
I updated to Yosemite and Android Studio wouldn't clean my projects or Run them on virtual or real device because of the following error:
Failed to complete Gradle execution.Cause:Supplied javaHome is not a valid folder. You supplied: /System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home
After some research and trouble shooting, I found that the JDK file that was being pointed to at "/System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home" wasn't there; all of "JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home" was missing from "/System/Library/Java". So, I copied "JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home" over from "/Library/Java/" to "/System/Library/Java/" and cha ching! I was back in business.
