Determining JVM Build

Question

I have searched for this but could not find anything..
I am trying to determine the the build number of the Microsoft JVM in an applet but i get
test.java:6: package com.ms.util does not exist
build=com.ms.util.SystemVersionManager.getVMVersion().getProperty
^
I have the following code (I have excluded the applet part to avoid confusion):
class test
   public static void main(String[] args)
    String build;
    build=com.ms.util.SystemVersionManager.getVMVersion().getProperty("BuildIncrement");
    System.out.println("Using build "+build);
}what am i missing?

Answer 1

package com.ms.util does not existThe ms stands for Microsoft.
If you build a dependency upon these packages your code will not work in the Sun JVMs and hence won't work on any browser where the JVM's been updated (MS don't supply updates to their JVM after some legal kerfuffles a few years ago).
