Hi,
I have a Problem with the exec-Method of the Runtime-Object. On the
DOS-Commandline this statement works propperly:
command.com /c copy C:\print.ps lpt1
but with the exec-Method it doesen't. Here is my Programm:
import java.io.*;
public class doscommand {
public static void main (String[]args){
int i;
InputStream is;
try{
is = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("command.com /c copy C:\\print.ps
lpt1").getInputStream();
while((i = is.read()) != -1) System.out.print((char)i);
}
catch(java.io.IOException e) {
System.err.println(e.getMessage());
System.exit(1);
}
}
Why is this? Can anyone help me?
Thank you, christoph.
