@ Laurenz Albe, All
1st of all thanks for your kind reply. But I can access registry values
using java. The problem I am facing is, in case of postgres settings
informations are kept under a subdirectory named after the product key. I am
able to access from the registry if the path is unique for all the
computers. Since product key is different for each installed computer, my
code written for one computer will not work in another. If it is possible to
traverse folders under registry pane, as seen left side of registry, my
problem will be solved. In my computer.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\PostgreSQL\Installations\{B823632E-3B72-4514-8865-B961CE263224}
The last value is different from machine to machine. I am able to fetch key
values upto HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\PostgreSQL\Installations. But not
after that. Yes it is true registry will not make code compatible for linux,
but I have OS checking part in my code. So, registry part will not run while
on linux. I have different logic (sompe file reading/scanning) for linux ,
solaris.

Java does not give you access to the Windows registry as this is not
portable to other operating systems.
You'd have to use native methods.
