Another possibility might be to just exec the shell, and use the
OutputStream from the Process to send commands to the shell - e.g.
Process shell = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("/bin/sh");
PrintStream out = new PrintStream (shell.getOutputStream (), true);
DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream (shell.getInputStream ());
String line = null;
out.println ("ls");
while ((line = in.readLine ()) != null)
{
// Do something with it
}
out.println ("pwd");
.
.
.
out.println ("exit");
I have no idea if this would work, but I don't know any reason why not.
(I'd be curious to know if there is a reason.)
