cross compiler for java for ubuntu on windows

Question

I am deploying a java application in windows IDE but this application will be run in Ubuntu. What cross compiler do I need to compile in windows and then deploy it in Ubuntu?

Thank you,

Java is cross-platform already. Classes compiled with Windows should work in Ubuntu . — Arnaud

Java works on any platform. You can compile your code on windows and run it on Ubuntu, and vice-versa. — Sampisa

Little anecdote: i once worked on project, developers worked on windows, automated build on linux, and final deployment was on AIX machines. No cross-compilers needed :-) — Gyro Gearless

All Java compilers are cross-platform. That's one of the most important characteristics of Java. Java compiles to byte-code, which is the interpreted by a virtual machine. If a computer has a virtual machine it can run byte code generated in any operating system.
