Comment: Simplifying install instructions

Code Block
$ build/macosx-universal/j2sdk-bundle/1.7.0.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java -version

Install

Code Block
mkdir -p ~/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines
cp -R build/macosx-universal/j2sdk-bundle/1.7.0.jdk ~/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines
Panel

The "1.7.0.jdk" bundle can be copied or symlinked to ~/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines or /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines.

Once installed, the build will be discovered by /Applications/Utilities/Java Preferences.app, and found using the /usr/libexec/java_home tool, when passing it "--version 1.7".

By dragging the 1.7.0 version to the top of the Java Preferences lists, it will become the default JVM for command line use (since CommandLine is currently the only capability it supports).

Run

Code Block
export JAVA_HOME=`/usr/libexec/java_home --version 1.7`
$JAVA_HOME/bin/java -version
