After updating to version 5.0 and changing the Java version in preferences, the user is experiencing an issue where the terminal still shows Java version 1.4 as the default when executing "java -version." They seek guidance on how to set version 5.0 as the default from the terminal. A response suggests installing jdk1.5.0_04 from Google and running the setup, noting that there may not be significant differences between the versions.

Hi,

I just updated to 5.0 and changed the java version from the java preferences as instructed in the installation instructions. However, from the terminal if I type java -version it shows that the 1.4 is still the default. Can someone tell me how to set 5.0 as the default from the terminal.

Thanks:
