JRE version from application

914035Jan 7 2019 — edited Apr 16 2019

I have a swing application that within it I want to get the java version from the user's machine.  The application that I am using, when installed, installs a self contained JRE and when I try to do a System.getProperty("java.version"), it is retrieving the java version of the self-contained JRE within the application.  I was wondering if there is another way that I would be able to get the java version from the user's machine?

Thanks in advance.
