How to run Eclipse with java 8 temporarily so as to install jboss adaptor?

1

I want to install jboss adaptor to Eclipse, but according to the answers as below:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31262682/eclipse-mars-not-showing-jboss-server

I need to run eclipse with java 8

But I don't want to use java 8 now, so can I just run Eclipse with java 8 temporarily so as to install jboss adaptor and then return to java 7?

if so, how to do so? currently I have not installed java 8, what steps should I follow? thanks

I'm using linux

@DavidPostill Thanks, but I'm using linux, not windows. – wen liu – 2016-01-09T23:49:49.360

A similar approach should work on Linux ... – DavidPostill – 2016-01-09T23:53:27.407
