this is actually about java.. i have added one third party library named XOM xml parser for my project. i have compiled that file and having the class file.. and my question is.. can i run that class file on another system which don't have that third party(XOM) library? in my experience with python it needs all the required third-party modules before it run on another machine.. i think it's a scripting language doesn't have the intermediate byte-code transformation like java.. and what is actually a .pyc file?
