How do I clear the screen in text mode (cls)

How do I clear the screen in text mode (cls)
Thanks,

Clearing of console is an OS specific command, so
in case of Windows you should try:
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cls");Though it wouldn't help, because exec() will be done as a separate
process... :)

  • How i can clear the screen in JAVA?, in c++ is  command that called .......

    system("cls")
    but in JAVA??
    thx
    gicio1

    system("cls") is the silly way to do it. For a start, "cls" isn't on most computers, because most computers call it "clear". You could run this from Java using Runtime.exec("clear"), Runtime.exec("cls"), etc .. but the best way to clear the screen is still to print out N newlines, where N is the height of the screen.
    The only problem with this way is, you don't know the height of the screen. You could pass an environment variable in as a system property, from whatever launches your program, and if it's not there "assume" it's 200 or something. Then just build up a string with "\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n"... and print it out. Blam, blank screen. :-)

  • How can i clear the screen???

    yup! how can i d that before i print the content into the screen???

    In Windows, you can use this configuration. Don't forget the changes in config.sys.
    // The following line must be added to
    // config.sys for clearscreen to work !!
    // DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\ANSI.SYS
    public class ClearScreen {
      public Test() {
        System.out.println("Hi How are you?\n\n\n" );
        System.out.println("Hi How are you?\n" );
        char esc = 27;
        String clear = esc + "[2J";
        System.out.print(clear);
      public static void main(String[] args) {
        new Test();
    }

  • How can I install the oracle in text mode?

    When I install the Oracle9i on solaris system, I always need the GUI.

    please give me some hints.

  • How to clear the screen in the command prompt?

    Hello Everyone,
    I was wondering how we can clear the screen in the command prompt in Java. I remember we can do this in C by writing system("cls");
    What is the best IDE for writing Java programs. Is the NetBeans IDE good? Thank you very much.

    I was wondering how we can clear the screen in the
    command prompt in Java. I remember we can do this in
    C by writing system("cls");I guess there's no Java way of doing that because it's a function of the shell you're calling. If you try to use Runtime.exec on cls, it starts yet another shell, clears that, and closes it again, so it has no effect on your output.
    You could try using the '\b' backspace character, if that helps.
    What is the best IDE for writing Java programs. Is
    the NetBeans IDE good? Thank you very much.By the way you're asking this question, the answer will be almost certainly "none". If you want to, you can search this board for the few million times this question was asked before, pick all IDEs suggested there and use the one you're most comfortable with.

  • Clearing the screen

    I realize this has probably been covered before but how do you clear the screen of previous lines of code?
    I am using Crimson Editor and the latest SDK and running programs in a DOS shell.
    Please let me know how to do it, if it is a DOS command how to implement into my program and if a java method what the parameters are.
    Thanks.

    If you are wanting to clear the DOS window, there is no provision in Java for that. You could output new lines from your program and force the data on the screed to scroll off.
    The DOS command to clear the screen is "cls" and you will need to use runtime method. Search the forums for that method, there are literally hundreds of posts on the subject. The search is in the upper right corner.

    Hello Den53,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430?viewlocale=en_US
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
    After the device has turned off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Best of luck,

  • How Do I Clear the app download screen

    How do I clear the app update screen after I have updated the apps.

    TThe apps do not delete.  Apple has not programmed this I to the system.  Keep on letting them know that this clutter is not necessary.  Everyone was used to the old system, update and disappear when done.  I do not like the clutter myself.  Keep on asking apple to fix this.  

  • How to change the screen field text in runtime

    Hi ,
      I want to change the screen button text in runtime IN ABAP dynpro screens. if anybody know this please post some helpful answer
    Regards,
    Anil kumar G

    Hi Anil..
    We can change the Text of a Pushbutton dynamically.
    For this:
    1. Declare a Global variable with the Same name as the Button in TOP include
      Eg:   Data: Button1(30).
    2. In the PBO module of the Screen assign the Text to this variable:
       Eg:
        Module set_text OUTPUT.
            Button1 = 'This is the text'.
        ENDMODULE.
