How to close the command prompt open by Runtime.exec

[Rajesh kt]

Hi All,

I have a cmd file as shown below.

set ANT_HOME=%ANT_HOME%

%ANT_HOME%/bin/ant build.xml

I have written a java code to

Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process pr = rt.exec("cmd /c start/wait localbuild.cmd");
It works fine... opens a command prompt and runs the localbuild.cmd file .

Now i need to close this command prompt once it finished executing the cmd file.
How can i achive this...

What you want to do?

How do you know whether the cnmd file executes or not?

Does it execute before you add exit int he array?

put "exit" in the last line of your localbuild.cmd. Without quotes, of course.
