    The Java SE Runtime Environment contains the Java virtual machine, runtime class libraries, and Java application launcher that are necessary to run programs written in the Java programming language. It is not a development environment and does not contain development tools such as compilers or debuggers. To run your application, a user needs the Java SE Runtime Environment, which is freely available from Sun. Or, you can redistribute the Java SE Runtime Environment for free with your application, according to the terms of the Runtime Environment's license.

    Nice one man.. But i always think, that using c or c++ you create a program that does not need any thing extra to run on windows.. then y do you need a Java Runtime Environment for running programs build in Java.. I have still not studied Java so my knowledge is limited here..

    Java programs are portable. Once you've compiled them, you need to have Java Runtime for running programs. Java Runtime Env is created for each and every platform. That's why, JRE is needed.

    In  case of C / C++ programs, final executable versions are created. But in case of java, code is only compiled, and no platform specific executable code is created. This intermediate object code is known as object code in Java. To run this code, you need JRE, which does the job of executing bytecode.
