# Translate button is broken for now, please use Google to translate this website.
#
# 2014/02/10 Updated the script to run on OSX 10.9 Maverick
#
# 2013/05/11 Added a few more guidance when Java Preferences is not available anymore 
#            Added a simple example of a JDK switch function.
#
# 2012/08/25 This script didn't behave correctly when ran on 10.8.1
#            Added recommendation to always run this script after updates such as Java, XCode, OSX, etc.
#
# 2O12/07/29 Added Mountain Lion support => Choose the 64bit JVM !
#            Can dowload the Java DMG itself if not present in same directory
#            Colored the output a bit, works well on a black background
#            Added tips for using the different JVMs
#            Removed 32bit mode for Mountain Lion (Thanks to Henri Gomez for pointing me to 'ditto')
#
# 2011/12/04 Added warnings and some more information on gotchas
#
# 2011/08/25 Updated this very comments
#
# 2011/08/22 Initial version (Thanks to Benjamin Morin for his blog post)
#            This script heavily inspired/copied from http://www.s-seven.net/java_15_lion

@jfougere Thanks your solution it works like a charm in Yosemite !! It will be better to update the script by owner

Hi ! I have tried the jfougere's solution on 10.10 Yosemite and my java application launches then quits immediately ! The system asks me to send a report to apple, and here is the principal error message that i can extract from a huge code that explains the problem (i didn't send it to apple) :

Dyld Error Message:
Symbol not found: _CGContextSetAllowsAcceleration
Referenced from: /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5.0_30/Libraries/libawt.jnilib
Expected in: /System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Versions/A/ApplicationServices

Can anybody help me to find a solution, please ? Thanks !

Hi,
Pierre do you find a solution, i've the exactly same problem :'(
Thanks

With the fix by jfougere, it works for me.

System: OS X 10.10.1 (14B25)
Kernel: Darwin 14.0.0

The installer at http://support.apple.com/downloads/DL1359/en_US/JavaForMacOSX10.5Update10.dmg appears to contain a Java 6 implementation, as well as Java 5 it seems.

Could I get please a little more details on jpfougere fix ;) ?
"Where" do you edit that plist ?
It is the one from the DMG ? the one of the pkg ?

many thanks

java -version gives this.
Cannot run Java in 32 bit mode. Continuing in 64 bit mode.
java version "1.5.0_30"

But still seems to use the java 1.7
Any solution?

@asiriwork, make sure your JAVA_HOME is correctly set

This is not working with elcapitan
