Is it possible to create a executable jar file coded in java12 while java8 is still installed? We use java8 in university but privatly im coding in 12 and so i need to find a way to run a private coded program through a jar file (created with artifacts through intellij) but still keep the java8 installment for university.
i tried this command
start javaw -jar jogurtLaunch.jar
and i tried rightclick and 'open with' and using the java12 exe (both java.exe and javaw.exe), but nothing happens except for the windows cmd prompt popping up for a few milliseconds in case of the exe and a jvm error ('Error: A JNI error has occurred, please check your installation and try again') popping up in case of the command.
Also i'd prefer a solution that is usable on all computers and not just for java12 development pcs. Is there a way or do i have to code it in java8?
