Bat files from java application..its urgent pls help me

hi
My java application tries to execute the bat file, the code followes
Runtime runs = Runtime.getRuntime();
runs.exec("e:/customisation/test.bat");
The bat file contains commands to copy files from one folder to another
and some dos commands, but the commands are not executing. If i tried the bat file with some exe's like notepad its working well, but not working with dos commands.
thanks in advance

Hi
Your batch file will be working actually. But no output will be seen in the console window.
For example I had created a batch file with the folowing code
echo This is test
copy test.bat test1.bat
pause
Even though I can't see the messages in the console, it executed when called using
Runtime runs = Runtime.getRuntime();
runs.exec("hi.bat");
where hi.bat contains the above code.
If you want to see the output messages also in the console, you have to redirect the outputstream to the current console. One such class this does is available somewhere in Java(I don't exactly remember :-( ). I think it is StreamPluginThread.java

Running .bat files from java applications

Has anyone tried to run a .bat file from a java application?
I know I can run java commands by getting the application's runtime, but I've a number of *.bat files I like to run from the application without having to extract the commands from the .bat files.
thks,

Crikey! You were answered very shortly after you posted your question, and you STILL haven't bothered to come back. And are you going to create a new userid the next time you ask a question, since bat2004 seems tied to this particular question?

Running exe files from java applications

Hello All,
Is it possible to run executable files from java applications?
I need to run an exe file on the client from the server machine, the exe could reside on either the server or any other machine on the LAN. Is it possible to specify the path of where the exe resides, and run it on a client machine?

HI,
I tried to launch a MS Word application using runtime.exec but it gives me some problem
The foll. code to launch a txt file using notepad works.
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
String[] callAndArgs = {"notepad.exe","C:\\coo7\\wizard.txt"};
Process child = rt.exec(callAndArgs);
However, oif I try to launch a MS Word application, it asks for the entire path of WINWORD.exe, (unlike just specifying notepad.exe as the first argument in String[] callAndArgs) and this can vary from one machine to another.. how do I get around this?
The foll. code snippet works but the complete path of where WINWORD.exe might be installed on any machine, is not fixed:-(
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
String[] callAndArgs = {"C:\\Program Files\\Office\\Office10\\WINWORD.exe","C:\\coo7\\wizard.doc"};
Process child = rt.exec(callAndArgs);
Any idea/suggestions pls..

Running bat-files from Java

Hello,
I have been trying to launch a bat-file from my Java code, running under windows, but with no success.
Here is my simple code:
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[] {
"C:\\temp\\test.bat"
});This does nothing at all and generates no exception. Any suggestions?

It seems java has a real problem with this... if you
want to run another java program, for instance, you
cannot do that either with String cmd="cmd.exe /C
java myProgram"
I need to pass parameters from one program into the
program I'm going to open using java, that is why I
need to call it from my first program. It can open
executables and shortcuts, but has a real big problem
doing things with the command line.No it doesn't have a problem with it. You just must be doing something wrong. By the way, since "java(.exe)" is already an executable, there's little value in wrapping that by the "cmd.exe" shell (unless you want to use the command shell for some reason such as passing the redirector (>) symbols to it to let it redirect stdout / stderr to a file)

Running .bat files from java code

Dear Forum,
I have seen numerous postings on the web about this question, still I have found no answer that works (for me)
I�m trying to run a simple .bat file from a piece of java code , however it does not work. No error message , but still.
Does anyone have a tip?
best regards
temuj
try{
String cmd = "cmd.exe C:\\mybat.bat";
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
catch(IOException e){System.out.println("ERROR: "+e);}Message was edited by:
temujin

"cmd.exe C:\mybat.bat" is being passed to the OS for execution
what happens when in a terminal/dos window you execute letter for letter:
cmd.exe C:\mybat.bat
The output will be identical to what is happening when java makes this call.

Executing a .bat file from java code

Im writing a utility and i need to be able to create and execute a .bat file from my program. I can create the .bat file fine but when i try to execute it nothing happens. I tried to use the following line of code to try to execute the .bat file (called make.bat) :
try
String parameterString = "\"C:\\WINNT\\System32\\cmd.exe\" C:\\ITS_Test\\make.bat";
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(parameterString);
catch (Exception e)
System.out.println(e);
The Runtime.getRuntime()exec() method worked fine when trying to execute an excel file but for some reason it dosen't want to work for the DOS prompt. Any ideas?

Thanks everyone for all the replies.
I have tried all the above with no luck. Im using netbeans, does anyone think that it could be a problem with the IDE.
I tired the following code :
String parameterString = "cmd.exe /C \"C:\\ITS_Test\\make.bat\"";
Process pr = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(parameterString);
pr.waitFor();
This code does not throw any exceptions but just hangs. I also tried:
String [] parameterString = {"cmd", "/c", "C:\\ITS_Test\\make.bat"};
Process pr = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(parameterString);
pr.waitFor();
and:
String parameterString = "\"C:\\WINNT\\System32\\cmd.exe\" \"C:\\ITS_Test\\make.bat\"";
Process pr = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(parameterString);
pr.waitFor();
with the same result. Does anyone know why it just hangs and nothing happens (no exceptions thrown)?

hi,
there is no direct tcode for going to webdynpro component/interfaces in ecc 6.0.
but u have se58 in ecc 5.0,as webdynpro convertor.u give ur program name and click web dynpro convertor button then it takes u to se80 .but this wda(webdynpro abap) component comes as in application tree hierarchy .
i can say in wda component refers a class .if u select webdynpro component/interface,it ask u to create a class or interface.
after that it automatically generate component controller(it is also a class),
interface view and windows.all these 3 are classes.for every window one interface view will be created.ie.. window is internal visible where as interface view is external visible.
u create view and embed these views in windows.by going to the window layout,right click on the window name and click embed view.u can enbed as many view as u wish.in order to navigate from one view to other view ,click "create navigation" by right clicking the view plugs.
by default windows and view have inbound plugs.this is literally a event of that class.
if u want to navigate from view1 to view2 ,create outbound plug for view1,the click outbound plug of view1 and right click the click create navigation the select inbound plug of view2.
then create a application .this is simillar of creating an object.
click on this object and test .this will open in browser.
for deploying u have use "sap webdynpro iview".

Write HTML Files from java application

Hello,
i have to write HTML files from a java application.
I am asking if anybody can give me a hint about a good simple solution (library) which can do some of the job for me.
i know FOP for example is good to create pdf or html from xml, but i dont want to go via xml.
the sites i need are really very simple presents emails.
body and maybe a link for next and pervious.
however, thank you in advance.
a little hint will also help :)
Sako.

That, too, is my question.
Be the "server" local or remote, wouldn't JSPs still
be the easier solution? No. it will not. because you need a server. Server for a stand alone application is not esier. according to who said JSPs are easy?
Its very very difficult.
>
When answering, please clarify. I'm a bit of a newbie
here. :)To get sence about how hard is JSP, check Struts. this is very good open source Framework to simplify the JSPs. but it still complecated enough.
or Tapestry my lovely open srouce Framework.
its easier than Struts. but sill complecated because of the documentation.
All in all, using JSP is the purpose of Java in the internet. but not for me. My application will not be available in the internet, i.e. no server, i.e. no need for JSP.
i hope that helps a little.

Running Oracle startup or shutdown bat file from Java code

I have two bat files for the startup and shutdown of Oracle instance which works fine from the command prompt. But my requirement is to run it through a Java program. Please reply with full Java code. Also mention how I would get the status of the bat files that it is successfully executed or not and if not what is the error.

Your program is working fine, but there is another problem. What's happening now is I have to open the Login screen after the startup of oracle server is complete, but the next line of my program after Runtime.exec is the LoginScreen.show which immediately shows the login screen after executing Runtime.exec and when I am giving the login name and password and press enter, it shows Oracle not available exception, because the startup process is still in progress. I want to stop the execution of my next line of code until and unless my process of Oracle startup is complete.

How to open an PDF file from Java Application

Hi
I am developing a GUI application in java swing.
on clicking one button, I want to open PDF file from my swing application.
Is there any API through which I can achieve this?
Tapan Maru

Here's a way to do it (if I understand you
correctly). Just let explorer.exe do it for you.
import java.awt.*;
public class openPDF
     Desktop desktop = Desktop.getDesktop();
     public openPDF()
          open("test.pdf");
     public void open(String path)
          try
               Runtime.getRuntime().exec("explorer.exe "+path);
} catch(Exception e) { System.out.println("NAI!
I! ERROR!\n"+e); }
     public static void main(String[] args)
          openPDF myApplication = new openPDF();
Why do you have a Desktop object as a member but instead of using it, you execute a command with Runtime (which is not platform independent!)???

Hi,
<u><b>Deleting Adjacent Duplicate Entries</b></u>
To delete adjacent duplicate entries use the following statement:
DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATE ENTRIES FROM <itab>
[COMPARING <f1> <f2> ...
|ALL FIELDS].
The system deletes all adjacent duplicate entries from the internal table <itab>. Entries are
duplicate if they fulfill one of the following compare criteria:
Without the COMPARING addition, the contents of the key fields of the table must be
identical in both lines.
If you use the addition COMPARING <f1> <f2> ... the contents of the specified fields <f1>
<f2> ... must be identical in both lines. You can also specify a field <fi> dynamically as
the contents of a field <ni> in the form (<ni>). If <ni> is empty when the statement is
executed, it is ignored. You can restrict the search to partial fields by
specifying offset and length.
If you use the addition COMPARING ALL FIELDS the contents of all fields of both lines
must be identical.
You can use this statement to delete all duplicate entries from an internal table if the table is
sorted by the specified compare criterion.
If at least one line is deleted, the system sets SY-SUBRC to 0, otherwise to 4.
Examples
DATA: BEGIN OF LINE,
COL1 TYPE I,
COL2 TYPE I,
END OF LINE.
DATA ITAB LIKE HASHED TABLE OF LINE WITH UNIQUE KEY COL1.
DO 4 TIMES.
LINE-COL1 = SY-INDEX.
LINE-COL2 = SY-INDEX ** 2.
INSERT LINE INTO TABLE ITAB.
ENDDO.
LINE-COL1 = 1.
DELETE TABLE ITAB: FROM LINE,
WITH TABLE KEY COL1 = 3.
LOOP AT ITAB INTO LINE.
WRITE: / LINE-COL1, LINE-COL2.
ENDLOOP.
The output is:
2 4
4 16
The program fills a hashed table with a list of square numbers. The DELETE
statement delete the lines from the table where the key field COL1 has the contents 1 or 3.

Bhaskar
