Java Environment Setup Skill

This skill must be activated in each new PowerShell terminal session to configure Java JDK 21 as the active JDK. Maven builds require this configuration to compile and run the project.

Prerequisites:

• •JDK 21 must be installed in $env:USERPROFILE\.jdks directory

Setup: Execute the following command once per terminal session:

$jdk21 = Get-ChildItem -Path "$env:USERPROFILE\.jdks" -Filter "*21*" | Sort-Object -Property Name -Descending | Select-Object -First 1
if ($null -ne $jdk21) {
    $env:JAVA_HOME = $jdk21.FullName
    $env:PATH = "$env:JAVA_HOME\bin;$env:PATH"
}

Verification: To verify the setup, execute:

java -version
$env:JAVA_HOME
