How do you capture output of a command executed on Shell, and how do you know
if it is done executing?
I need this because some programs look for variables set by the .profile (ksh).
This is how I'm doing it now:
-open Shell channel and send a ByteArrayInputStream that contains my command,
while outputing to a tmpfile.txt
-sleep for a bit and then (this is because i dont know when my command is done
running.. this is a retarded way of doing it since some commands take a lot
longer than others)
-open another channel(Exec) and send "cat tmpfile.txt" then read the input
stream
-remove the temp file
********************start of sample code**********
commandToRun=commandToRun + " > "+tempFile+"\n";
byte[] bytes = commandToRun.getBytes();
ByteArrayInputStream bais=new ByteArrayInputStream(bytes);
try { ..... //session connection stuff
.....
Channel channel=session.openChannel("shell");
((ChannelShell)channel).setInputStream(bais);
channel.connect();
try{Thread.sleep(1500);}catch(Exception ee){}
Channel channel2=session.openChannel("exec");
((ChannelExec)channel2).setCommand("cat "+tempFile+"\n");
InputStream in1=channel2.getInputStream();
channel2.connect();
//channel 3 deletes the temp file
**********************end of sample code **************************
There must be a better way of doing this...
What about a way to know when the command is done? Since the first channel is a
shell, i dont think you can wait for is to be .isClosed() since it never is.
Thank you very much for your help.
