Unless the other people that made executables has bothered to make a mac version, then there would probably be no other compatable program.
Trying your program won't do any good for a mac user...MAC has a COMPLETELY different codebase, it is similar to code written for unix which is NOT java/c/c++

and the JDK is for compiling...sure he would be able to compile it but running it is a completely different story. To run it he needs a Java Virtual Machine written for the MAC OS (I know there is one for Linux, but I am very unsure about MAC)
