Are there APIs to check if the system is android, not the desktop jvm?

How to determine if my app is running on Android

I am going to write a library which will be imported in both desktop and android system.

I would like the library to use different class depending on the system.

I am pretty sure there is a way to check it, but couldn't find.

Any help will be appreciated.

You can try to look for android.app.Activity class through reflection. If it is present - Android system libraries is in your classpath and, thus, you are in Android.

You would also want to use the Java API if your code is cross platform. – TheRealChx101 Aug 30 '16 at 17:24
