JarCastingprocess-warden
process-warden provides a safer wrapper around the built in Java Process and ProcessBuilder classes for executing native subprocesses.
Usage
With Java 6:
FinalizedProcessBuilder pb = new FinalizedProcessBuilder("myCommand", "myArg");
FinalizedProcess process = pb.start();
try {
int returnVal = process.waitFor(5000);
} finally {
process.close();
}
With Java 7 and try-with-resources:
FinalizedProcessBuilder pb = new FinalizedProcessBuilder("myCommand", "myArg");
try (FinalizedProcess process = pb.start()) {
int returnVal = process.waitFor(5000);
}
Now With Stream Gobbling. The StreamGobbler will gobble up the input stream, error stream, or both in a separate thread to prevent from blocking your thread.
FinalizedProcessBuilder pb = new FinalizedProcessBuilder("myCommand", "myArg");
pb.gobbleStreams(true);
try (FinalizedProcess process = pb.start()) {
int returnVal = process.waitFor(5000);
}
