I am trying to run Eclipse to develop Android apps. When I first opened Eclipse it provided a link to install legacy JVM from apple.com, after that was installed I am getting this error message Version 1.6.0_65 of the JVM is not suitable for this product. Version: 1.8 or greater is required

I installed the newer version (8u151) from java.com but that didn't help. I found the following link to download version 1.8 but that page has only the latest versions: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/pt/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html

Anyone figured out how to install Eclipse on Mac High Sierra?

The last time this kind of thing bit me I was inadvertently installing the run-time Java (which is what Apple usually provides a link to) on my server, not the full Java SDK (which has the compilers and stuff you need to do developmentn).

I usually hunt for the full Java SE Development Kit at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/.

Scroll down until you see Download the Java SE Development Kit http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-netbeans-jsp-142931.html
