Can't switch Java

[swappo]

Hello,

I am trying to switch from Sun Java to OpenJDK. I am currently running Sun Java but am having trouble compiling a java progam so I want to switch to OpenJDK which I already have installed. I would like to post the output from the terminal to show what I did, however, I keep getting a message saying that I cannot post a url until I have 15 posts or more despite the fact that I am not posting a url but the output from a terminal.

Originally, Java was set to Sun Java. Now the + is indicating that Open Java is running but when I check the version, I am getting Sun Java. Also, there is an asterisk by Sun Java and I am not sure what it means. Could this mean that Sun Java is still the active Java? Also, please tell me how to post output from terminal. I tried using plain text, code, quote and php tags but I keep getting that stupid url message.
