Once you’ve built your stand-alone Java application, be sure to distribute the correct pieces: • The Java class file, which itself is platform independent • The Java Virtual Machine for that platform The Java Virtual Machine comes in the form of “jview.exe”, a redistributable component available both in the Visual J++ package and in the Microsoft Java SDK. The Java SDK is available for download from the Microsoft Technologies for Java (http://www.microsoft.com/java/). To control and compress the installation bundle, we recommend you use the CAB development kit included with Visual J++.
