import java.io.IOException;
import java.net.URI;
public class RunningDefaultBrowser {
public static void main(String[] args) {
URI uri = URI.create("http://www.kodejava.org");
try {
//
// Get Desktop instance of the current browser context.
// If the platform doesn't support Desktop API an
// UnsupportedOperationException will be thrown.
//
Desktop desktop = Desktop.getDesktop();
//
// Browse the uri using user's default web browser.
//
desktop.browse(uri);
} catch (IOException e) {
