ThanksNo, there is no "normal" way to do this. If you're on Windows, you could try this hack:

class OpenCD
  public OpenCD()
    try
      String driveLetter = javax.swing.JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter CD drive letter");
      if(driveLetter != null)
        java.io.File file = new java.io.File("OpenCD.vbs");
        java.io.FileWriter fw = new java.io.FileWriter(file);
        fw.write("CreateObject(\"Shell.Application\").NameSpace(17).ParseName(\""+driveLetter+"\" & \":\\\").InvokeVerb(\"e&ject\")");
        fw.close();
        Runtime.getRuntime().exec("WScript.exe openCD.vbs");
        Thread.sleep(2000);
        file.deleteOnExit();
    catch(Exception e){e.printStackTrace();}
    System.exit(0);
  public static void main(String[] args){new OpenCD();}
}
