We can use commons-lang3 library:
xxxxxxxxxx1
import org.apache.commons.lang3.SystemUtils;2
3
public class Program {4
5
public static void main(String[] args) {6
7
// Most popular usage:8
System.out.println(SystemUtils.IS_OS_LINUX); // true // when running on Ubuntu, Debian, ...9
System.out.println(SystemUtils.IS_OS_MAC); // false10
11
System.out.println(SystemUtils.IS_OS_WINDOWS); // false12
13
// Less popular usage:14
System.out.println(SystemUtils.IS_OS_SOLARIS); // false15
System.out.println(SystemUtils.IS_OS_SUN_OS); // false16
}17
