SDKMan VS Homebrew-cask

SDKman UI aims to offer a (cross-platform) Graphical User Interface for SDKMAN. It extends the functionality of the terminal-tool SDKMAN with a user interface, but also makes the tool available for Window systems.

I used sdkman for switching between multiple Java versions, and in this case I used java 17.0.12. For the Flutter version, I used fvm and used flutter 3.24.0 on this project.

The reason I picked this issue is because the project was in Java. I've wanted to work with Java for a while because despite it's popularity I haven't had much exposure to it. Meaning with this issue, I was working in a completely new language ecosystem. Luckily, the very week before, I'd started learning a bit of Java on the side. I still had to learn some tricks, like managing installations of different versions of Java and Gradle - SDKMAN! really came in clutch here, but to use this tool I had to work in WSL, because it only supports Linux, which meant I did have to figure out how to set up IntelliJ in WSL, but that was fine with me because my existing development setup for JavaScript is already entirely WSL-based.

Install SDKMAN

On Linux and macOS: SDKMAN! is a SDK manager specialzed in the Java ecosystem. Instructions on how to manage JDKs is provided here.

I use https://sdkman.io/ to manage JVM versions, have you tried that? I haven't used Cursive, maybe it does something weird, but in general IntelliJ seems to accept it just fine in my everyday work.

I would suggest learning how to use SDKMAN: https://sdkman.io/

It will manage the JDK for you. Usage is basically this:

   # Install a JDK, that version is now default

Alternatively, you can use sdkman. A great tool to install your Software Development Kit. The downside is that it only works on *nix systems. So for Widnows users, you will have to use WSL or Cygwin as the official page suggests. It is really simple to use sdkman. after a successful installation, just type those commands into your *nix shell:

To run the example, you must install the Auth0 CLI and create an Auth0 account. If you don't have an Auth0 account, sign up for free. I recommend using SDKMAN! to install Java 17+ and HTTPie for making HTTP requests.

Using Homebrew Cask for Calibre actually makes the problem worse because the download is consistently very slow for some people. For me, it took around an hour the last time I had it installed on my Mac.

(Note that I don't actually have calibre installed on my machine. I'm only going by the calibre.rb file present on brew's GitHub.)

seems like you might be able to look at https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/commits/89f99aad090a5148b0a44eef826f1fc7c0c6aa84/Casks/arc.rb and figure out which version works and plug the version into the download url. would be more ideal if theres a way to do it directly from brew but im not sure how offhand

I use Homebrew to install and delete most apps, because they include a zap list in their formula of all files and folders to delete when uninstalling. You can see Parallels formula and zap list here: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/tree/master/Casks/parallels.rb

Sto cercando di creare una "botte" per l'app VPN FORTICLIENT gratuita (e ho già fatto per il software Full Forticlient), vedi qui: [https://github.com/homebrew/homebrew-cask coin(https:/ /github.com/homebrew/homebrew-cask)

Huh, it was just accepted as the mainline fork in Homebrew last week! Been trying it and it seems to have all the features that the rowanj fork had! https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/pull/141659

True, and there's an issue for that: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/issues/89497
