Configure IntelliJ to open with old Java version in macOS

I’ve an IntelliJ 13 app but it can’t be executed with the new Java versions, but it could be configured to use a specific Java version.

1. Open the app with the context menu and select Shows Package Content

2. Edit the file Contents/Info.plsit and edit the next section to select the base version, in this example I’ve using the Java 1.8.

<key>JVMVersion</key>
<string>1.8*</string>

3. Save the file and execute the app.
