Answer 1

hi,
i cant think of a reason why you would do something like that.. You cant prevent your class files to be read by the JVM of a different OS, but anyway you could do something to stop your code from running in a different OS, for eg.
Properties prop = System.getProperties();
if (prop.getProperty("os.name").startsWith("Windows")==true)
      //code
else
       System.out.println("Sorry i will not run in this OS");
}cheerz
