I need to write a java program which when executed pushes a command into the terminal
I tried using runtime.exec(); but not working fine for me
what i want is "/home/raj/Desktop/java -jar test.jar" to be executed in terminal
Can any one help me to sort it out.
If you want to actually start a terminal window (rather than just executing the java process) you will need to launch xterm (or something similar) and tell xterm to run java for example
String command= "/usr/bin/xterm -e /home/raj/Desktop/java -jar test.jar";
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process pr = rt.exec(command);
Please refer following example .with list of arguments to java program.
Process proc = null;
try {
String cmd[] = {"gnome-terminal", "-x", "bash", "-c", "ls; echo '<enter>'; read" };
proc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd, null, wd);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
You can use full path of the jar file as an argument to "java"
String command= "java -jar /home/raj/Desktop/test.jar";
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process pr = rt.exec(command);
