Calling another java class from a java class

Question

Hi Friends,
I have a class tht works in 2 modes,depending upon which mode i am passing (gui or text) on the command line eg:
java myclass [mode]
I want to call this command from another java class,and i wrote this code:
try
         Process theProcess =
            Runtime.getRuntime().exec("java myclass  "+args[0]);
      catch(IOException e)
         System.err.println("Error on exec() method");
         e.printStackTrace();
      }When i pass "gui" it works fine,but when i pass"text", the class completes and nothing shows up on the command prompt window,so can please somebody tell me how to make this work.
Thanks

As aniseed just pointed out, you could do something like this:
import javax.swing.*;
class Test extends JFrame {
     public Test(String title) {
          this.setTitle(title);
          this.pack();
          this.setSize(300, 300);
          this.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
          this.setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
     public static void main(String[] argv) { new Test(argv[0]).setVisible(true); }
public class Test2 {
     public static void main(String[] argv) {
          Test.main(argv);
}Run it by executing this command:
java Test2 "Title of Frame"See if that's not what you're looking for ...
