[opencms-dev] execute command app line from opencms site

[ruben malchow]

you coulod try it like described below. but beware ... you have to
be VERY careful with this. a user might be able to execute any
command with the permission of the user your appserver is running
under if you don't check what's being passed to the shell script.

.rm

----------------------


    String command =  "/bin/ls";
    String arg1 = "-l" ;
    String arg2 = "-a" ;

    Process p = Runtime.exec(new String[] { command, arg1, arg2 } );
   
    boolean processExit=false;

    while (!processExit) {
       try {
          p.getExitValue();
          processExit=true;
       } catch (IllegalThreadStateException itse) {
          // not donw yet;
       }
    }
