Is there a way to programmatically detect the Java3D version number?

Writing a simple Java environment probing app for end-users to provide me with debug info. I can currently detect Java3D with some old code I had running:

        // Check for Java3D
        boolean hasJava3D = false;
        try {
            com.sun.j3d.utils.geometry.Sphere sphere = new com.sun.j3d.utils.geometry.Sphere();
            hasJava3D = true;
        } catch (Error e) {
        }

I note that the above spews out the version info to the system console. Not sure if that is something I did in the past or not - doubt it since this is an updated Java3D.

Is there any way to get more specific information on Java3D?

TIA, LS

PS: Looking forward to more Jogl and Java3D programming for some months to come (university sabbatical).
