I am getting Gradle build errors and my theory is, it's because of the JDK version I'm using. My JAVA_HOME is set to JDK 8 and the command prompt reflects this:

If I run git bash terminal from my STS4 IDE, it returns JDK 17:

How is this possible? Yes, I have my environment variables pointing to JDK 8 ( this is the desired version) and the path is listed FIRST. For some reason, my IDE is picking up version 17. Lastly, yes I have reopened my IDE/command prompt since making these changes.

Any ideas/explanations would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Do you have a `~/.bash_profile` in your git bash ? – nquincampoix Feb 03 '22 at 15:24
