executing java program from java

i want to execute ine java program from java.
iam sending my code.please see this. is it correct.when i executing it is not displaying any
public class prs
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
try
{

Runtime r=Runtime.getRuntime();
Process p=null;
p=r.exec("java Hastable1");//here Hastable1 is another java program
}
catch(Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
if this is not correct please tell me how to do this

Why not include Hastable1 in your classpath and call it from your program like this:

String[] parameters = ...;
Hastable1.main(parameters);

Or do you need access to InputStream and OutputStream?

Of course, if you have the source code, you can simply give it a proper API.

I Haven't understand these parameters and i don't need any parametersand my requirement is to execute some other java class from java program.please see where the problem is.if possible please modify my program and sent it to me as it is urgent for me

Ulf was saying that there is nothing special about a 'ajav program', it is a Java class that gets run using its 'main' method. You can call the 'main' method from your class and it will cause the other 'class' to be run just like it is run from the command line (more or less).

If you have other requirements please be more specific on the problem you are having.

i don't need any streams and i have used parameters also.but it is giving errors. from java program i need to execute some other java class
please send any code regarding this to me

my actual requirement is from the java program i have to start the weblogic server by interactively giving the domainname,servername etc.

i have executed like normal java class only.it is not giving any errors or output.just blankscreen is comming

What happens if you execute a program that has this statement:

Hastable1.main(new String[]{}); // call main() method of Hastable1

Copy and paste here the commandline and all of the console messages.

it is giving the error as cannot resolve symbol Hastable1.can we import that Hastableclass

I suggested earlier to include Hastable1 in your classpath. Without that, it will not work. And yes, you will need to add an import statement, but without the class being in the classpath that won't do much good.
