Installing new jdk over preinstalled jdk

I have solaris 2.7 and it comes with jdk 1.1.6

what do i need to remove or reconfigure in order install
jdk 1.1.7 inside the machine... i'm not that familiar with
solaris and i havent found any uninstall bin files for the
jdk1.1.6.

thanks

I think they can live together, you only have to change the path of your java compiler so that it would compile with the new one.
Simplest way is to just install your JDK1.1.7, and reset the environment variable to point to your new directory.

For eg. CLASSPATH=<your_new_lib_path>
