"process ID" implies a platform-specific thing. Do all platforms have 
"process IDs"? Maybe, maybe not. And even if they do, are the IDs always
 of integer type? Maybe, maybe not. Anyway, being a platform-specific thing, and knowing that java is 
designed for platform-independence, the answer must be "no" (not in pure
 Java, anyway).

Use caution when using the classes from sun package because it contains undocumented support classes that may change between releases of Java. The URL&#39;s below should be of some help.<br>
