Remember when installing Java meant one download, one version, once choice? Back in the old days, you would head over to java.sun.com or later to Oracle website to download the installer, click through a few prompts, and you were done. Life was simple. Back then, there was typically one widely-adopted version of Java that would remain stable for years. You didn’t need to think much about version management because there wasn’t much to manage. Over the years, a lot has changed.
