java application pdf,从Java应用程序中即时打开PDF文件

Is there any way to have a code that opens a PDF file in Java application in a platform independant way? I mean using a batch file in Windows could do that. Is there any other way to have a platform independent code to open PDF files on the fly?

Launches the associated application to open the file.

So this code should do the trick:

if (Desktop.isDesktopSupported()) {

try {

File myFile = new File("/path/to/file.pdf");

Desktop.getDesktop().open(myFile);

} catch (IOException ex) {

// no application registered for PDFs

}

}
