And one was suggested: use Apple's com.apple.eawt.Application class methods. You hadn't said originally that you wanted a method that would work on every version. It's useful to know things like that up front.

Given the fundamental watershed switch from a Carbon-based UI in 1.3.1 to a Cocoa-based one in 1.4.1, probably not. Some JNI-based approach is the most likely to succeed (as that would remove at least the JDirect dependency), but, almost certainly, you're going to need different approaches for different versions.
