sudo mv jdk-10 /usr/lib/jvm/java-10-openjdk-amd64/ -
Add the new Java alternative:
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /usr/lib/jvm/java-10-openjdk-amd64/bin/java 1 sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javac javac /usr/lib/jvm/java-10-openjdk-amd64/bin/javac 1 -
Update your system’s java alternatives and choose JDK 10:
$ sudo update-alternatives --config java here are 3 choices for the alternative java (providing /usr/bin/java). Selection Path Priority Status ------------------------------------------------------------ 0 /usr/lib/jvm/java-9-openjdk-amd64/bin/java 1091 auto mode * 1 /usr/lib/jvm/java-10-openjdk-amd64/bin/java 1 manual mode 2 /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java 1081 manual mode 3 /usr/lib/jvm/java-9-openjdk-amd64/bin/java 1091 manual mode Press <enter> to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number:and
$ sudo update-alternatives --config javac There are 3 choices for the alternative javac (providing /usr/bin/javac).
