Checking system requirements using Java

I'm new to Java, and I was asked to create an applet / servlet (not sure what I should use to be an honest, pretty sure applet) to make sure that the user computer meets the system requirements. These requirements include processor speed, memory size, screen resolution, load / unload speed, and possibly a couple of other criteria.

I would be extremely grateful for being in the right direction. I have a little script for the res screen already, and I looked at Hyperic SIGAR for most of the rest (except for the bandwidth stuff).

Questions: Is the applet correct? Is Java the correct / best language? (this will be done through a web page)

Any direction is welcome ...

Is the applet the right direction?

Perhaps yes, the only alternative in Java to run Java classes on a client machine from a website is to use Java Web Start (JWS). You can explore both. I would recommend looking at JWS primarily because

  • SIGAR libraries (or any other native libraries) must be present in the location "java.library.path" of the client machine. If your own libraries are contained in applets, you must first write them to disk before downloading.
  • JWS JAR. nativelib JNLP JAR, SIGAR.
