I am on OSX 10.8

when I say which javac it will print out this:

/usr/bin/javac

I Googled about setting JAVA_HOME and I see people saying I should do this: ( I want Java 6.0 instead of 7 too ) 

export JAVA_HOME=`/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.6`

so is that ALL I need to do? I see some places say then I should also set the PATH ?

  • You mean you have Java 7 in your machine but you want to force javac to use Java 6? – Jops Mar 28 '13 at 16:51
  • @Jean! that's actually the link I copy pasted the export java_home from it and have more questions based on that I asked here. – DarkNightFan Mar 28 '13 at 18:24
  • I understand. On the duplicate, **onpduo** says it works. So, I don't understand your question. Did you test to see if it worked? Wether or not is all you need to do? I mean, where did you put `export JAVA_HOME='/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.6'`? In your ~/.bash_profile? If so, you may need to quit the terminal and launch it again. – Jean Mar 28 '13 at 20:56
