I want the Apache Cordova CLI being called by a Java Process but unfortunatly the Java Process doesn't wait until it is finished.
This is, how i call it:
StringBuffer sb = null;
String cmd = "cd /location/generated && cordova create MyNewApp"
try {
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
p.waitFor();
BufferedReader reader =
new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
sb = new StringBuffer();
String line = "";
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
sb.append(line + "\n");
}
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
I've seen many solutions, that say "waitFor()" will do the trick but unfortunatly not for me. I've already tried to always read and compare the last line of code generated by the cordova cmd and finish afterwards, but this is not a good approach. Do you have any suggestions?
Resolved it:
Cmd looks like this "cordova create /path/to/generated/app/ Hello World"
Be aware, the path has to exist before the cmd is beeing called

Basically, I have a problem which is, I am using ProcessBuilder () to run Noxim simulator from java IDE, but neither the shell opened nor the results returned. It just displayed this error :
Exit with error code: 127
I tried the same code to execute the ping command, and it worked and returned the output shown in the shell. I also used the code run Kdeveloper and it worked well.
Note: the path is correct as It worked well in the shell
ProcessBuilder processBuilder = new ProcessBuilder();
processBuilder.command("/home/sa/Bureau/NOXIM/noxim/bin/noxim");
try {
Process process = processBuilder.start();
int exitCode = process.waitFor();
System.out.println("\nExited with error code : " + exitCode);
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(process.getInputStream()));
String line;
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(line);
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
It's important to read the error stream too. I guess you see some more messages. Have a look here: https://gist.github.com/th-schwarz/041e13ede396a869c7681b5ad637460c
The easiest way is to read the error stream too is:
processBuilder.redirectErrorStream(true);
i am running jdk on windows 7. I try to run a external software (pocketsphinx_continous.exe) within my java application. The software runs permanently (pocketsphinx_continous.exe) and prints some output to the console which i like to read by my java application.
if i run "pocketsphinx_continous.exe" with some params from the commandline all works well and i see the output from the software. After killing the process, i try to run it within my java application. But java print no output to the console.
This is my code:
public void start(){
try {
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
String[] commands = {"D:/cmusphinx/pocketsphinx/bin/Release/x64/pocketsphinx_continuous.exe", "-hmm", "d:/cmusphinx/pocketsphinx/model/en-us/en-us", "-lm", "d:/cmusphinx/pocketsphinx/model/en-us/en-us.lm.bin", "-dict", "d:/cmusphinx/pocketsphinx/model/en-us/cmudict-en-us.dict", "-samprate", "16000/8000/48000", "-inmic", "yes"};
Process proc = rt.exec(commands);
BufferedReader stdInput = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(proc.getInputStream()));
BufferedReader stdError = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(proc.getErrorStream()));
// read the output from the command
System.out.println("Here is the standard output of the command:\n");
String s = null;
while ((s = stdInput.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(s);
}
// read any errors from the attempted command
System.out.println("Here is the standard error of the command (if any):\n");
while ((s = stdError.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(s);
}
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
Java will only print "Here is the standard output of the command:" and nothing more. But it wont crash, its still running without any errors. It seems to me java will wait until the executed command is finished until it prints anything. But the software will run permanently and print some times new results ...
Any ideas?
Best regards
Mike
I suggest you do the following:
Process p = null;
ProcessBuilder b = new ProcessBuilder("D:/cmusphinx/pocketsphinx/bin/Release/x64/pocketsphinx_continuous.exe -hmm d:/cmusphinx/pocketsphinx/model/en-us/en-us -lm d:/cmusphinx/pocketsphinx/model/en-us/en-us.lm.bin -dict d:/cmusphinx/pocketsphinx/model/en-us/cmudict-en-us.dict -samprate 16000/8000/48000 -inmic yes");
try {
p = b.start();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
BufferedReader output = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
String line = null;
try {
while ( (line = output.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(line);
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Using ProcessBuilder you don't have to separate parameters. Just copy the whole command in a String.
I'm trying to execute a network testing application via my Java application. Below is the code:
try {
String file = new File("iperf3.exe").getCanonicalPath();
String cmd[] = {file,"-c ping.online.net -P 20 -w 710000 -t"};
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
BufferedReader input = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
String line;
while ((line = input.readLine()) != null) {
lblConsole.setText(line);
//System.out.println(line);
}
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
I got an error saying that the application could not connect to the server. However, when I execute the command in my command prompt, there is no error.
May I know what could I have missed out here?
Managed to solve this issue. It is mainly on how I executed the code in the cmd. Just updated to as below:
String file = new File("iperf3.exe").getCanonicalPath(); String cmd1[] = {file,"-c","ping.online.net","-P","10","-w","710000"};
I am using the following code to execute a command in java and getting the output:
String line;
try {
System.out.println(command);
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);
BufferedReader input = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
while ((line = input.readLine()) != null) {
print(line);
}
input.close();
}
catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
However, apparently the command 'tree' and 'assoc' and others aren't actually their own programs that can be run through Java, rather they are coded in as parts of command prompt, so I cannot get the output. Is there actually any way to do this? Thank you
I don't have a windows machine to test this on, but generally to get the output for those builtins you run cmd.exe as the program and pass it the command as an argument.
Now, this has some limitations, because when the command finishes the executable stops. So if you do a cd command, it will work, but it only affect the subprocess, not your process. For those sorts of things, if you want them to change the state of your process, you'll need to use other facilities.
This version works on a Mac:
import java.io.*;
public class cmd {
public static void
main(String[] argv){
String line;
String[] cmd = {"bash","-c","ls"};
System.out.println("Hello, world!\n");
try {
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
BufferedReader input =
new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
while ((line = input.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(line);
}
input.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
}
return ;
}
}
I call a class which is located somewhere in a jar file (using java -classpath path/file.jar classname) within my java code.
This work well but only if the command is well formed. If I make a mistake the getRuntime().exect(command) just doesn't say anything. Bellow I have the working command invocation. I would like to get the error message when the command doesn't work. If I make a mistake in a cmd (windows) I get a proper error and I can fix it. But not within my java application.
I left a 'if(input.ready())' since if I don't the program freezes when the command line is incorrect. This happens when executing 'input.readLine()'.
// Execute a command with an argument that contains a space
String[] genKOSCommand = new String[] {
"java",
"-classpath",
Config.XDSI_TEST_KIT_HOME + "/xdsitest/lib/xdsitest.jar;"
+ Config.XDSI_TEST_KIT_HOME + "/xdsitest/classes",
"ca.etsmtl.ihe.xdsitest.docsource.SimplePublisher", "-k",
"C:/Softmedical/Viewer_Test/xdsi-testkit-2.0.4/xdsihome/usr/data/image14.dcm" };
Process child = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(genKOSCommand);
BufferedReader input = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
child.getInputStream()), 13107200);
String line = null;
if (input.ready()) {
while ((line = input.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(line);
}
try {
child.waitFor();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
Have any advice on how to get an error from the executed command?
Thank you
By using getErrorStream:
BufferedReader errinput = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
child.getErrorStream()));
When processing the input from the different streams, it is better to do it in a different thread (since those calls (readLine etc.) are blocking calls.
Here's a bit more complete piece of code to print out errors received upon running some command via Process/Runtime:
final String command = "/bin/bash -c cat foo.txt | some.app";
Process p;
try {
p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);
} catch (final IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
//Wait to get exit value
try {
p.waitFor();
final int exitValue = p.waitFor();
if (exitValue == 0)
System.out.println("Successfully executed the command: " + command);
else {
System.out.println("Failed to execute the following command: " + command + " due to the following error(s):");
try (final BufferedReader b = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getErrorStream()))) {
String line;
if ((line = b.readLine()) != null)
System.out.println(line);
} catch (final IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Isn't Process.getErrorStream what you want?
