RMI - Starting Servers

[Byron Eldridge]

Can this only be done through command line? Would like to trigger and thread from a Swing object. Are there any ways to run a batch file (e.g. *.bat)?

Thanks

Hi,

You can use something like

 Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("C:\myfile.bat"); 

to run a command line inwindows, but there may be better solutions depending exactly what you're trying to do.

Don't forget to escape the backslashes:

 Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("C:\[B]\[/B]myfile.bat");
