CD Drive eject

I've been searching all over and I still haven't found an answer. Is
there a way to eject a CD drive in Sun's Java? I've found the J++
code, but I need either the code in Java or a free copy of the J++
libraries. Thanks for help

No, not with Java, not in a cross-platform way.

JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Please eject CD drive " + path, "Eject",
JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE);

Well that sure _is_ a cross-platform way to do it... *smirk* Unless, of
course, the target platform's usual "weakest link" (the user) does not
happen to understand English. (In which case this method is not
supported) :-)

Solved by using ResourceBundle plus MessageFormat. :)
