Greetings. I want to use Java to provide an interface to an existing
application. My thoughts so far are as follows: use System.exec to start
the application, which should hand me a Process object implementing an input
and output stream for the application's stdin and stdout. I am running
Solaris 3.4.
The trouble is I haven't gotten this to work. No matter what application I
try to start, even standard system ones, I get a segv and core dump from the
application (the Java task continues merrily on).
This must be a fairly standard thing to do, does anyone have some code
examples or kind words of advice they could send my way?
Cheers,
