Exec a unix process with java

Question

Hi all
I am trying to write a statistic pgm in java about process queues in tmsdmin.
The code segment looks like below.
Process proc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("tmadmin");
This works perfectly but my question is how can I exec pq ? pq is a command in tmadmin itself??
I will be very thankful for any help regarding this Problem.

Answer 1

Why not try to exec the command with the redirections ?
For example:
   try {
      // Create input file
      String inputfilename = "inputfile.txt";
      BufferedWriter bw = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(inputfilename));
      bw.write("pq");   // and so on...
      bw.newLine();
      bw.close();
      // Create redirected command
      String exec_cmd = "tmadmin < " + inputfilename;
      // Run command
      Process proc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(exec_cmd);
   catch(Exception e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
   }Hope this helped,
Regards.
