OpenJDK Client VM Zulu11.52+13-CA (build 11.0.13+8-LTS, mixed mode)Ĭonfirmed! Azul Zulu 11 installed with SDKMAN runs fine on a Raspberry Pi. Yep, that's right, even for the Raspberry Pi different distributions can be used! So let's try out Azul Zulu 11.

Vendor | Use | Version | Dist | Status | Identifier $ source '$HOME/.sdkman/bin/sdkman-init.sh'Īvailable Java Versions for Linux ARM 32bit Hard Float # Open a new terminal or run this command If you want to dive in directly, grab yourself a Raspberry Pi, open a terminal and install ZIP and SDKMAN. But we have a working version now!!! Try it out As you can see in GitHub issue #836, this required some rework in different parts of the project. But as this is an open-source project it is possible to request new features and help to achieve the solution. Until recently that didn't work on Raspberry Pi because that runs on ARM. SDKMAN can show you a list of available JDK-distributions based on the operating system and architecture. It provides a convenient Command Line Interface (CLI) and API for installing, switching, removing and listing Candidates.Ī nice video with a full demo of SDKMAN is available here on foojay.io. SDKMAN! is a tool for managing parallel versions of multiple Software Development Kits on most Unix based systems.

It allows you to easily install a JDK, but also to switch between different versions. There are many ways to install Java but, personally, I find SDKMAN the easiest one to use. But a lot of the other available OS-versions don't have Java included. If you create a new SD card for a Raspberry Pi with the operating system, you can choose the 'Raspberry Pi OS Full (32-bit)' edition, which includes Java 11.
