I want to install OpenJDK Java on Mac OSX and have it work alongside other JDKs since it is a newer release. I downloaded the tar.gz and placed it in my path, but that is hard to maintain.

The only other install I found that does more things automatically is the install via Homebrew cask. It looks like only the current version too:

brew cask info java

Shows:

java: 13,33:5b8a42f3905b406298b72d750b6919f6

https://openjdk.java.net/

So I can install it from there, but then what? Am I stuck only with the new version?
