I need to use the exact version of Julia V1.0.0, where can I find it?

I intend to use a package which requires Julia v1.0.0

I have used other versions like v0.7.0, v1.0.4 and later releases but non of them works with the package.

If the package you are after is not working with 1.0.4 there are solid chances that it will not work with 1.0.0 either, or that it is relying on an unintended feature, colloquially also known as bug.

However, to get binaries for different versions of Julia, you have a number of options.

Option 1

Go to the Download page of the Julia website and grad the version you need.

However, not all available downloads have a corresponding link.

In your specific case, you should pick up the binary corresponding to the architecture you are interested in, copy the link, modify the link to replace the version info, and finally use the link.

For example, starting from: https://julialang-s3.julialang.org/bin/winnt/x64/1.0/julia-1.0.4-win64.exe

Replace 1.0.4 with 1.0.0: https://julialang-s3.julialang.org/bin/winnt/x64/1.0/julia-1.0.0-win64.exe

(I am not sure how long this trick would work).

Option 2

This is the safest method because it relies on the actual source history of the project (version control systems were made also for this).

You basically grab / check out the source:

https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/releases/tag/v1.0.0

And then you would compile it yourself. Instructions on how to do that are available here.
