Hello,
I am having a slight problem using java's exec routines and I was
wondering if any of you might be able to help me out. I have to
execute systems commands withing my java app, the problem is that
if java executes to quickly then race conditions exist for the
system commands. Basically I need to do something like:
Join(Exec("process foo"));
// now run the next command
Join(Exec("process bar"));
Thread join does not seem to help here since I am executing a call
that once executed is not "part" of the java process. Anyone have
a solution to this? Thanks for any replies.
