Very interesting. I had been using development under Linux under Eclipse for a long time and found it alright, although recent moves to Mac OSX as the fulltime development system meant it felt awkward under OSX (and upgrades between Eclipse versions always broke something).
Anyway, having installed the JDK 8 u25 on Mac OSX, Android Studio wouldn't run.
You need to export:
export STUDIO_JDK=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_25.jdk
Modify .bash_profile in your home directory to get that to stick.
- krschultz 12y agoUnfortunately the documentation isn't 100% worked out yet. They published a bunch today, but the post explaining that is buried in release notes for an RC build: http://tools.android.com/recent/androidstudio1rc3_releasecandidate3released http://tools.android.com/recent/androidstudio1rc3_releasecan...
- 72deluxe 12y agoYou're right - that link you provide is far better. Modify the Info.plist within /Applications/Android Studio.app/Contents and modify the JVMOptions / JVMVersion string to read 1.8* instead of the default 1.6*. Much better than the BASH profile thingy (which doesn't work without opening a terminal, obviously).
- matwood 12y agoThe above trick also works with Intellij proper. The only downside is you have to change it again after every update.
