Downloading and installing JDK
This section describes a tutorial example on how to install JDK (Java Development Kit) to use JAXP (Java API for XML Processing) or other Java based API to process XML documents and apply XML schemas.
To use JAXP (Java API for XML Processing) or other Java based API, you need to have a copy of JDK (Java Development Kit) installed on your machine. Here is what I did on my macOS computer to download and install JDK 13, which is the current version in 2019.
1. Go to Oracle Java SE download website at oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html.
2. Click "Download" next to "Java Platform (JDK) 13".
3. Click "jdk-13_osx-x64.bin.tar.gz" from the download list. It will be saved to your "Downloads" directory automatically.
4. Start a Terminal window and run commands below to install it.
herong$ cd ~/Downloads herong$ gunzip jdk-13_osx-x64.bin.tar.gz herong$ tar -xf jdk-13_osx-64.bin.tar herong$ sudo mv jdk-13.jdk/ /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/ herong$ java -version java version "13" 2019-09-17 Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 13+33) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 13+33, mixed mode, sharing)
Another way to install JDK is to using the *.dmg file, which can integrate better with Safari and other Applications.
If you are using Windows or Linux computers, you can follow simiar steps to download and install JDK 13.
