<br />
If you have to make it into an exe, so that it only runs on Windows machines, then you probably want to buy something like this:<br />

Help creating an exe

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
