Is it possible to run an ionic cordova build using Java 11 instead of Java 8?

Question

I'm building an app using Ionic v5.2.7. When I try to run

ionic cordova emulate android

I get an error

Requirements check failed for JDK 8 ('1.8.*')! Detected version: 11.0.5

I've been trying to install Java 8, but it's long since been deprecated and Debian 10 doesn't trust the public key provided by the webupd8team PPA. I've tried a few workarounds for installing Java 8, but if at all possible I'd much rather run this using a more modern version of Java.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Update: I've tried to install Java 8 using several different guides, all of which lead to a Package 'oracle-java8-installer' has no installation candidate problem

Answer 1

我不知道主要问题的答案，但也许您可以尝试使用jabba安装 java 8（它类似于nvm但对于 java）

Answer 2

I know this question is old, but maybe the answer helps others. You can try to use sdkman to install different versions of Java and switch between them quickly.
