Denying system.exit in java code

My objective is to nullifying the system.exit programmed. By goggling i learn t that this can be done by adding permission in policy file. But as far my google search i dont understand how to deny a permission. Most of them says about granting a permission. Can anyone clarify how to deny a permission.
Steps i tried.
Sample program: which does nothing other than calling system.exit(0) as the first line in main method.
added the following line to java.policy file in my JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security
grant {
          permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "exitVM";
Also tried adding only
permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "exitVM";
to the already available grant block.
Also commented out
//grant codeBase "file:${java.home}/lib/ext/*" {
//     permission java.security.AllPermission;
After that i understood that the default java policy file is java.home\lib\security\java.policy. So made all the change above mentioned there too.
But i could not achieve it. Can any one help me on this.
Win 2000/ Java1.4.2_12/no command line arguments while running the program.

  • Stoping System Clock using Java code.

    Is it possible to do so if yes then some code idea for
    Stoping System Clock using Java code.
    [email protected]

    The system clock is controlled from the BIOS, and as such, I don't think even windoze can stop it, though it can be continually reset. I don't believe that Java provides a sufficiently low level of control to set the system clock, although you could use a native method to accomplish the task.
    Why would you want to do such a thing?

  • How to kill a system process from java code.

    Hi,
    i need to kill or remove windows system process like cmd.exe from java code.
    like removing it from end process in task mgr.
    i tried below code but its not removed.
    is there a better way we can do this.
    killing a system process from java code will create any issues?
       public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
       String[] cmd = { "cmd.exe" };
       Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
       p.destroy();
    any suggestions or ideas are really appreciated.
    thanks.

    Hi  jtahlborn, mohan
    yes the process is created from my java code. 
    in my code iam creating a process like below and if it is running for a long i need to kill it from java.
    For that " Runtime.getRuntime().exec("taskkill /F /PID " +  7408); " is working fine.
    7408 is my process id in taskmgr created from java and iam manually passing the PID it to kill it.
    But i need to get the PID from java code.
    Thanks for your suggestions.
    Sample Code:
    public static void main(String args[])
            try {
              Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[]{"cmd.exe","/c","start"});        
              Field f = process.getClass().getDeclaredField( "handle");
              f.setAccessible( true);         
              long procHandle = f.getLong( process);
              System.out.println( "prochandle: " + procHandle );
              //Runtime.getRuntime().exec("taskkill /F /PID " +  procHandle);
            } catch( Exception e) {
              e.printStackTrace();

  • System call fom Java code

    Hi all
    I hope someone over here might answer my problem.
    I need to run a Shell script form my Java code, which does perform some operations like writing/copying files to a specific directory and my Java code then starts reading the files and do necessary stuff like parsing it for some info inside the file.
    If I make a system call from my Java code, how do I know when the shell script is done executing completely? Just to make sure that my Java code execution starts only after the shell script has executed.
    If anyone has come across such a scenario, please reply to this topic. A sample code wud be a bonus for me :)
    Thanks
    -Uday

    If you've never used Runtime.exec, read this carefully first:

  • System Exit from JAVA Application

    I need to call Oracle Reports from a JAVA application.
    Does anyone have experience in this area?
    One thing that comes to mind is to make a system exit and call the reports from the command line. Is this possible to be done? How?
    Thank you for any help or suggestions.
    Tina.

    the best way to access the oracle database is via jdbc (see http://java.sun.com/products/jdbc/ ). if, however, you specifically need to run some oracle reporting s/w then you could run it as a separate process from your java application using Runtime.exec() (see http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/java/lang/Runtime.html#exec(java.lang.String) ) which returns a Process object. you can then read its output with the Process object's getInputStream() method (this gives you an InputStream which is the data piped from the standard output stream of the process).

  • How can I set system date from java code?

    Hi. I need to set the system date from my application. It must works on Windows7 so the "cmd /C date" must be executed with Administrator privileges.
    I tried do it that
    Process p = rt.exec("runas /user:" + env.get("COMPUTERNAME") + "\\Administrator \"cmd /C date " + dateYYYYMMDD + "\"");
    Then process ask me for password for administrator but it terminates befor i send it. exitCode() returns 1.
    Have you some idea how can I do it?
    Regards for you.

    At the very least, you need to read this and follow the advice it gives. That may or may not solve your problem, but it's a bare minimum.

  • How can i get system variable using java

    Hi,
    I just want to know how can i get system variables
    using java code.
    for example i want to get the the date for today or i
    want to get the number of processes that's running.
    Thanks alotSome generic "system variables" are available though Java, usually through the System class.
    Date today = new Date();
    is instantiated with the current date and time.
    Other system values, like environment values, should be passed to java through the command line (-D option) by setting system properties.
    Finally, platform specific values like the number of processes running will have to be written in platform specific code and executed by JNI (java native interface).
    Java is platform or system agnostic. Common system values, like time, are implemented. Hopefully you won't need platform specific values.

  • Executing system commands like cd on Linux from Java Code

    Since this thread mentioned using the DOS START command
    from an exec(), I was wondering whether anyone else is
    seeing the odd behavior I am.
    Most of the examples showing how to read stdout and stderr
    while the process is running show simple loops that use
    getInputStream and getErrorStream and do read's until they
    get back -1. Most of these examples are insensitive to the
    state of the Process.waitFor that happens elsewhere and sort
    of rely on the -1 and the waitFor happening roughly together.
    Whenever I use this technique to launch an arbitrary DOS
    command (e.g. Runtime.exec("dir")), it works fine, and
    everything seems to terminate as expected.
    However, when my command is something like:
    Runtime.exec("cmd /c start my.bat")
    where I deliberately use the START command to fork off
    a different process, something odd happens.
    Those simple read loops get an initial burst of stdout/stderr
    bytes from the "start" part of the command. But then eventually,
    these loops do a "read" which blocks on those InputStreams. Now,
    even if my Process.waitFor returns (because the start returned
    immediately), those read loops stay blocked **until that script
    started by 'start' runs to completion**. It is like the child
    of the child is holding those streams open somehow.
    I found that by doing something like an InputStream.available() or
    a BufferedReader.ready( ) check before dropping into the read,
    and allowing the Process.waitFor completion to exit those read loops,
    them I get what I expect -- namely immediate return from the START,
    but apparently complete copies of stdout and stderr.
    Curiously, in the case where the reads block until the child process
    started by START terminates, they still don't get the child's/child's
    stdout and stderr. It is just a long duration thread block that
    yields no data.
    Can anyone explain what is happening to a
    Process.getInputStream( ).read()
    when the process immediately does a START and returns? Why would
    the read( ) stay blocked when the START finished launching a new child
    process?

  • Java 1.5_09 vs Java 1.4.2_11 and System.exit

    The java program tries to access a url, if cannot it returns 129
    * <pre>
    * 0 - Successful connection
    * 129 - Network connection failure, or no connection.
    * 130 - Connected to server, but received HTTP error.
    * </pre>
    Here is the code snippet
    status = status == -1? 129 : 130;
    System.exit(status);
    if I compile the class under 1.4.2_11 I get back 129. If I compile the class under 1.5_09 I get back -107374189
    This causes my bat file errorlevel check to fail. Any ideas ?

    Hello nudli and Welcome to Apple Discussions ..
    In laymans terms, Java SE consists of a virtual machine, which must be used to run Java programs, together with a set of libraries (or packages) needed to allow the use of file systems, networks, graphical interfaces, and so on, from within those programs. Java works quietly in the background.
    First, run the Software Updater to see if you have all available updates. Click the Apple logo top left in your Desktop then click Software Update ... the update window will open and populate a list of updates you might need. Just follow the instructions to install them. If the Software Updater didn't find any needed Java files, then you are up to date. Most times after an install you need to Restart. AND, it's always good to run Disk Utility located here: Applications/Disk Utilities and Repair Disk Permissions every time you update software on your Mac.

  • System.exit(0) access denied

    I am trying to exit a card game program when the user selects Exit from a menu, so in the actionlistener I simply put

    Anyone know why?

    Hello friends,
    Well, I have the same problem.
    " java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.lang.RuntimePermission exitVM.0) "
    The program is an applet ... all the buttons are in a frame(so to speak) that is called by the applet.
    I have added that applet in a html file. Now if I try to run that html page... it do not work at all.
    I am new in this field. Please give me straight directions.

  • Denying Thread calling System.exit() successfully

    Hi all,
    i start another java app from within my code by calling it's main()-method in an own thread.
    As i don't have any access to the code of the java app i can't prevent it from calling System.exit() when the corresponding window is closed.
    How can i prevent the "threaded" java app from also closing my wrapping application when it is finished?
    Greetings,
    Bernhard

    You can install a security manager (your own) in your application and override the method checkExit(int status) in order to handle the event:
    class OwnSecurityManager extends SecurityManager{
         public void checkExit(int code){
              if(code == 1){
                   super.checkExit(code);
                   throw new SecurityException("Not allowed here"); //or your handling code
              }else{
              //other codes
    //in your app you install the manager like this
    SecurityManager s = new OwnManager();
    System.setSecurityManager(s);
