[jug-discussion] How can I get the PID of a process started by ant java fork=true ...?

2008-09-10 Thread Chad Woolley
Hey, I have a java question :)

I have an Ant target (the Jsunit start_server target, actually) which
starts a java process using the java fork=true ... Ant target.

How can I grab the PID for this process, or of the parent Ant process?
 Is the PID hidden by the JVM sandbox security, and my only option is
to grep the output of ps from the process invoking Ant?

Thanks,
-- Chad

Replying to an Ant question, yikes, .

Lots of goodies here http://ant.markmail.org/search/?q=exec+pid

Looks like the short answer is you can't really do it easily, but I'd  
go with what Steve says here with jps:

But personally, this looks like a problem solved best by using Lucene  
or Solr ;)

Hmm, here is a hack which works on unix shell, which is probably good
enough for me, even though I'll probably have to figure out the
inheritence:

+1 on this.  Long live the keyboard!

Maybe this fits with one of the topic ideas on the wiki -- Favorite 
small tools - four or five 10-15 minute presentations on small, lean,
mean developer tools that you would recommend to colleagues.
