Be careful with jobs   1 - if you have a job based in maven  Jenkins takes your default java configuration and you decide the compilation level in your POM XML   2 - if you have a free style job  in the  the configuration option of the job you can select the JDK that you want to use   Hope this help

For existing jobs you re editing  the JDK drop-down choice may not be available if you ve just added a single JDK config in the  Configure System  Jenkins settings   However  it is available for new jobs   Surprisingly  if you add a second JDK config  it becomes available in an existing job too   This looks to me like a bug  tested in Jenkins ver  1 629    See a similar issue raised here  JDK selection is hidden even when a JDK is configured

Using latest Jenkins version 2 7 4 which is also having a bug for existing jobs    Add new JDKs through Manage Jenkins -  Global Tool Configuration -  JDK    If you edit current job then JDK dropdown is not showing  bug  Hit http   your jenkin server 8080 restart and restart the server Re-configure job   Now  you should see JDK dropdown in  job name  -  Configure in Jenkins web ui  It will list all JDKs available in Jenkins configuration
