something better than java.lang.Runtime.exec() [message #336536]

Hi,

I am just working on my Builder which depends on running an external
binary and was just wondering if there is a more "eclipse-ish" way to
start an external binary than java.lang.Runtime.exec() ?

regards

christoph

Hello Christoph,

I'am using the ProcessBuilder instead of Runtime.exec().
I'am not shure, but I think this two approaches are the only ways to
fork off a process and execute it.

Thats more like default commands for MIME types, right?
