How can I clear the screen in CMD

I'm using Windows 7 and I'm wondering how I can clear the command line screen,
using java code, like normally you would write CLS for Command & Prompt.

The CLS command works for me in Windows 7. What happens when you type CLS at the command line?

(Also I will move this to the General Computing forum since it isn't about Java.)

I'm looking for a statement or something you can write in java to clear the screen.

What screen?

You are going to have to invoke some Win32 API functions to do this for you. Which means you need to write a native library to access those functions. This might help:

I'd say it should be also possible using either the Jansi, or perhaps JCurses library.

The Jansi library seems to provide platform independent way to do manipulate console output.

JCurses would allow you to create and manage your own console (that's way different from using stdout, but perhaps it might fit your needs too).
