Is it possible to run a file with Java code only? I don't mean to read and write but actually running it.

Answer 1

If you have the byte code then it is possible because .java file has to be first compiled to get a .class file which can be executed on any OS dependent JVM.

Also only JRE is enough to run or execute an already compiled code.

No, I meant to run for example an .exe file but with Java code, to write a program which will do it.
