I’m using homebrew to manage many of the addons I use on my Mac. I had openjdk 12.0 installed previously but needed OpenJDK 1.8 to run Mulesoft AnyPoint Studio 7.4. Making that work I had to install OpenJDK 1.8 from adoptopenjdk (https://adoptopenjdk.net/) using homebrew and then tweak the ini-file controlling the AnyPoint Studio which is Eclipse based.
I started by downloading and installing Mulesoft AnyPoint Studio from Mulesoft. Then I installed openjdk 1.8 using homebrew.
brew tap AdoptOpenJDK/openjdk brew cask install adoptopenjdk8
OpenJDK 1.8 was installed to /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/adoptopenjdk-8.jdk and the Java Runtime Environment could be found in /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/adoptopenjdk-8.jdk/Contents/Home/jre. Making sure it works is always a good idea.
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/adoptopenjdk-8.jdk/Contents/Home/jre/bin/java -version
Now edit the AnypointStudio.ini for and specify the Java Runtime to use using the -vm switch (in bold).
