lets assume that at profile time, the sun java is -not- in the path, and
the usual /usr/bni stuff is.
in pseudocode as I'm a little too fried/tired to work out the real code
and I haven't been coding sh/bash scripts in a few months so it all
blurs together...
put this as /usr/local/bin/jset or something ....
export PATH,BASEPATH
if not exists $BASEPATH then BASEPATH=$PATH
switch $1:
case "openjdk":
PATH=$BASEPATH
break;
case "sun":
PATH=/path/to/sun/jdk/bin:$BASEPATH
break;
case "somethign else":
PATH=/path/to/something/else:$BASEPATH
break;
default:
echo "Usage: $0 {sun|openjdk|somethingelse}"
break
endswitch;
this is the old school brute force method, doesn't rely on any external
magic other than a sane initial PATH
