You can install version 7 alongside version 6, but you will most likely have to get the package directly from the Java site.

My system is 5.6, with upgrades. I installed Java 6 from the Centos repository. It doesn't seem to have Java 7. I need the development package. How can I install Java 7 development safely? I imagine I will first have to uninstall Java 6.
Thanks, John
