How to run exe file from inside java

I wan to run an exe file from inside java code. How can I do it?
Thanks

Hi Oakam
This is very simple. Just go through the given code below
in place of FILEANDPATHNAME just give the exe's path and name
Note :- adding ".exe " is not necessary
public class exep
public static void main(String args[])
Runtime r = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process p = null;
try{
p = r.exec("FILEANDPATHNAME");
catch(Exception e)
Give ur feedback
Thanx

How to run .EXE files from Linux Portal page?

We have an IIS web server that runs a Photoshow_player.exe slide show program. I'm not sure if this can run from Linux Portal, but we are trying.
The link in an IIS web page looks like this:
<a> href="file:///\\mulsrv22\share\PCS\PhotoshowPlayer.exe" title="clean slate">clean slate</a>
Portal is installed and running from two Linux servers. If I create a link using the above syntax, I get "can not display page" browser errors.
I copied the entire PCS directory from the Windoz box to a Portal web_dav folder, but running the .EXE link from that Portal page gives errors indicating that the /PDS/data/.XML and /PCS/data/.jpg files can not be found.
Any ideas on how I can run this slide show from Linux Portal?
Thanks.
--Don

if you just need to run a slideshow in you portal, why don't you use a javascript slide show ?
Just "googleize" and you'll find tons of javascripts taht can do that.
for example : http://www.barelyfitz.com/projects/slideshow/

How to run .exe files with Virtual PC for Mac

Hey Guys, I'm new around here and with mac technology as well. Anyway, I have an iMac OS X 10.5.1 Leopard and I've recently purchased the Virtual PC for Mac 7.0.2 software. So I'd like to know how to use this program properly, because I need to run some executable files in my computer. It is confusing for me because I don't know how to get started, and I only get to the part when it says "OS not found, Install an OS on this hard drive".
Honestly I've no idea of what an OS is or where do I get that. So I'd really appreciate if one of you guys could tell me, step by step, what to do to use Virtual PC properly, and finally learn how to run .exe files on mac.
Thanks in advance!
Have a nice day!

Always nice to see new faces
Honestly I've no idea of what an OS is or where do I get that.
This brings up the second part of your problem. The first part is setting up either a proper Virtual Machine program like Parallels or VMfusion, or setting up a Boot Camp partition on your drive.
http://www.parallels.com/
http://www.vmware.com/products/fusion/
OS stands for Operating System. You are running Leopard 10.5.7 as an operating system on your Mac (MacOS X).
The second part of your problem - You will need a copy of Windows XP or Vista if you want to run Windows on your Mac.
There is at least one other solution for running Windows programs on a Mac. It's called "CrossOver" by a company named 'Codeweavers'. It's based on a project for "Wine" to be able to run PC programs on a Mac or Linux, without having to buy or install Windows. It works with a narrow subset of Windows programs so you would want to make sure the program you want to run is compatible with CrossOver before you buy it.
http://www.codeweavers.com/products/cxmac/
In addition to all the above information, you need to upgrade your Mac to the latest 10.5.7 from 10.5.1. "Software Update" is located under the black Apple icon in the Menu Bar at the top left corner of your monitor. After you are updated you will want to update your Profile here so that it shows the proper OS version.
With your level of experience with MacOS X and the Windows OS's you should probably get some help from a local Apple store. They have an appointment system and do offer many types of help and training, and they can offer assistance with choosing the proper programs for you to purchase for your machine.
You are also welcome to continue to ask questions here, of course. You will want to ask your questions with different issues that come up in different threads so that the answers stay focused on the title of the thread.

My comment is Valid... " .exe files will not run natively on Mac OS X..."
I am sorry. I had the false impression that it was commonly known that .exe files did not run on Mac OSX natively and failed to see any constructive critique you were bringing. Maybe I am wrong. Again deepest apologies.
Unfortunately... these days... not every one is aware of this .exe fact..
Apology accepted.. and Thank You..

Running exe files from java applications

Hello All,
Is it possible to run executable files from java applications?
I need to run an exe file on the client from the server machine, the exe could reside on either the server or any other machine on the LAN. Is it possible to specify the path of where the exe resides, and run it on a client machine?

HI,
I tried to launch a MS Word application using runtime.exec but it gives me some problem
The foll. code to launch a txt file using notepad works.
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
String[] callAndArgs = {"notepad.exe","C:\\coo7\\wizard.txt"};
Process child = rt.exec(callAndArgs);
However, oif I try to launch a MS Word application, it asks for the entire path of WINWORD.exe, (unlike just specifying notepad.exe as the first argument in String[] callAndArgs) and this can vary from one machine to another.. how do I get around this?
The foll. code snippet works but the complete path of where WINWORD.exe might be installed on any machine, is not fixed:-(
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
String[] callAndArgs = {"C:\\Program Files\\Office\\Office10\\WINWORD.exe","C:\\coo7\\wizard.doc"};
Process child = rt.exec(callAndArgs);
Any idea/suggestions pls..

How to run .exe files on macbook pro

Just bought my first macbook pro the other day. I absolutely love it. Much better than the windows boxes. I wanted to run some '.exe' files on my new laptop but was not successful finding anything on the market to use without purchasing a full OS version of Windows. Is there any software out there that I can use to run '.exe' files without purchasing a full Windows OS to do so. I know about parallels for MAC but that seems to require purchasing Windows OS? Any help is greatly appreciately.
Here are the specs on my Macbook Pro.
2.2GHz quad core i7
4GB RAM
500GB HDD

Some Windows software -- not all, by a long shot -- will run on a Mac without installing Windows, with the aid of the CrossOver Mac emulator:

Games generally won't. For those, you need Windows installed through Boot Camp so you can run Windows natively.

How to run .exe files with DAQ on a target PC?

Hi,
I want to run LabVIEW executable files on a target PC, where there is no LabVIEW installed. These files are used to do measurement using DAQ devices.
In order to run these .exe file, I guess that I should install both LabVIEW Runtime Engine and NI-DAQmx on the target PC. Is it right?
I'm wondering if it is mantatory to install NI-DAQmx on the target PC. I tried running .exe files without NI-DAQmx installed, but there was an error: nilvaiu.dll couldn't be found. Shouldn't this file be included automatically when building the executable files?
Thanks,
Qifu

No, none of the hardware drivers are included in the LabVIEW exe that you build. You have to install DAQmx. With LabVIEW 8.x, you can include the DAQmx driver with the installer that you create. You also have the option to install different versions of DAQmx. These different versions are smaller than the full DAQmx install (i.e. you may choose to install documentation, MAX. etc.). When you create the installer, you also inclue the LabVIEW run-time and you should also choose to install the hardware configureation that is in MAX.

How to run exe file in cfm

Can anybody give me proper way to run exe file in

To add to all these valuable questions, what executable are
you trying
to run, what kind of parameters does it need? It can be a bit
tricky to
pass complex parameters through the <cfexecute ...>
tag.
