Executing PowerShell script via JAVA

Question

Hi,
I have simple powershell script as below :
# Filename: Hello.ps1
Write-Host
Write-Host 'Hello World!'
Write-Host "Good-bye World! `n"
# end of script
I wish to run this script via JAVA by the below JAVA code -
import java.io.*;
public class PsJava {
public static void main(String[] args)
throws IOException{
        Runtime runtime = Runtime.getRuntime();
String cmds = (String)
"cmd /C powershell C:/Documents and Settings/vvenkata/My         Documents/Hello.ps1";
        Process proc = runtime.exec(cmds);
        proc.getOutputStream().close();
        InputStream inputstream = proc.getInputStream();
            InputStreamReader inputstreamreader =
new InputStreamReader(inputstream);
            BufferedReader bufferedreader =
new BufferedReader(inputstreamreader);
String line;
while ((line = bufferedreader.readLine()) != null) {
            System.out.println(line);          
Thanks
Now, why is that I am not able to see any print statements from Hello.ps1 ? Can anyone help me on this?

Hi,
I have place my powershell script in the 'C' directory. and i have changed my JAVA code as below, but it still doesn't give any output in my Eclipse Console.
import java.io.*;
public class PsJava {
public static void main(String[] args)
throws IOException{
        Runtime runtime = Runtime.getRuntime();
String cmds = (String)
"cmd /c powershell c:/Hello.ps1";
        Process proc = runtime.exec(cmds);
        proc.getOutputStream().close();
        InputStream inputstream = proc.getInputStream();
            InputStreamReader inputstreamreader =
new InputStreamReader(inputstream);
            BufferedReader bufferedreader =
new BufferedReader(inputstreamreader);
String line;
while ((line = bufferedreader.readLine()) != null) {
            System.out.println(line);          
Please advice me on this. If I have to create a batch file, then can you let me know how do I do that?
Thanks
