How to brew install java?

Turns out java has been moved into brew core recently, so the correct command as of August 2022 is:

brew install java

Then check your installation by running

java --version

If the result does not looks like this:

openjdk 18.0.2 2022-07-19
OpenJDK Runtime Environment Homebrew (build 18.0.2+0)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM Homebrew (build 18.0.2+0, mixed mode, sharing)

but like this:

The operation couldn’t be completed. Unable to locate a Java Runtime.
Please visit http://www.java.com for information on installing Java.

Then you also need to create a symlink for the system Java wrappers to find this JDK:

sudo ln -sfn /opt/homebrew/opt/openjdk/libexec/openjdk.jdk \
     /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/openjdk.jdk
