Answered [HELP] Install jdk on elementaryos to code java

Hello everybody!
I'm new to linux (using Elementary OS Freya) so I don't know how to install jdk + jre on this os. I have searched on google but I can't install it. So, could you show me how to install it?

 

Hi Bang,

because ElementaryOS Freya is built on core of Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, you can use the Ubuntu PPA. A developer Team called "WebUpd8" is updating their non-official repository with Oracle JDKs 7 and 8 installers. Just add the PPA-Repository and install (here: java8) it this way, type in your Terminal:

Code (Text):

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer

PPA Repository Info Page: https://launchpad.net/~webupd8team/+archive/ubuntu/java

Hope it works

 

Tks verymuch, it worked

 

For Java 9:

Code (Text):

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install oracle-java9-installer

 

marko@maxon-HP:~$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
[sudo] password for marko:
sudo: add-apt-repository: command not found


what s wrong?? Can you help me? Problem is on Elementary 18.04
