                          I have recently installed NixOS on my machine, 
for Java development I have added IntelliJ CE 14.1.5 and the Oracle JDK 8.

However IntelliJ does not automatically recognize the path to the Java SDK

    readlink -f $(which java)
    /nix/store/...-oraclejdk-8u60/bin/java

when selecting /bin/ in the "Select Home Directory for JDK" it does not accept it. 

I have been searching around for some time now but I can't really find the right stuff to get it working.

Any help is appreciated.
