python 2.7 - How to select java version for pyjnius -

i have java 1.6.0_17 installed in /usr/local/bin. java program compiled 1.7.0_11.

pyjnius fails in call x = autoclass('helloworld')

when helloworld.java compiled 1.6, works.

i cannot pyjnius working 1.7.

i've tried setting java_home before importing jnius:

import os os.environ['java_home'] = '/usr/local/pkgs/jdk-1.7.0.11' jnius import autoclass xx = autoclass('helloworld') 

i've set java_home in .bash_profile , added /usr/local/pkgs/jdk-1.7.0.11/bin first in path.

pyjnius needs reinstalled in order configure new java environment. can done running following in downloaded or cloned pyjnius gihub project folder:

sudo python setup.py install
