In the Java programming language, source files (.java files) are compiled into class files which have a .class extension. Since Java is a platform-independent language, source code is compiled into an output file known as bytecode, which it stores in a .class file. If a source file has more than one class, each class is compiled into a separate .class file. These .class files can be loaded by any Java Virtual Machine (JVM).

| - In the Java programming language, source files (.java files) are compiled into class files which have a .class extension. Since Java is a platform-independent language, source code is compiled into an output file known as bytecode, which it stores in a .class file. If a source file has more than one class, each class is compiled into a separate .class file. These .class files can be loaded by any Java Virtual Machine (JVM).
Since JVMs are available for many platforms, the .class file compiled in one platform will execute in a JVM of another platform. This makes Java platform-independent.
As of 2006, the modification of the class file format is being considered under Java Specification Request (JSR) 202. (en)
