Mac version of what? There are two games on this page written in Java, which is compatable with Mac if Java is installed. The one I have can be used with JRE 1.5+. The other program requires you to compile it, which would be the JDK and computers normally don't come with that. You can try my program at http://ham90mack.googlepages.com/frc07strat

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)

I know that the JDK is used for compiling, I was just pointing out that the other java program that is posted here requires compiling.
However, mine is already compiled and put in a jar file. Try executing it, GBIT, and if it doesn't work, then try downloading the latest JRE from Apple at: http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/java/ (I don't see why Sun doesn't bother putting the file on their servers...) Here is a direct link to the download page if you can't find it.

If this doesn't work (and I don't see why not, Sun points to Apple's java page), then there is no hope, for now.

His program works exactly as it should on a Mac. The Java runtime for Macintosh is Java. That's the whole point of Java -- the underlying OS does not matter.

Of course if Render is talking about Apple's own version of Java (if they have one), then he would probably be right. I noticed that VS.NET has its own version of Java (J#) and it is totally different. It is annoying when trying to program on a computer that does not have Sun's JDK but has J#...

However, Macintosh computers should have JRE pre-installed. If the mac is a bit old, it might have version 1.4.2. My program is only compatable with JRE 1.5+, so it is possible that the macintosh would be out of date. If my program doesn't work when you try to execute it, install the latest version of the JRE at the link mentioned above.
