Hi Folks,

How to give the path when there exists spaces in that.

ex:

import java.io.*;
class batrun{
public static void main(String arg[]){
try{
String command = "cmd /C start C:/myapp.exe ";

Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process pr = rt.exec(command);

}catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}

it is running perfect..

but when i give

import java.io.*;
class batrun{
public static void main(String arg[]){
try{
//String command = "cmd /C start C:/myapp.exe ";
String command = "cmd /C start C:/Program Files/application/myapp.exe";
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process pr = rt.exec(command);

}catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}

it is not recognizing the path.

put in quotes and esc it.

String command = "cmd /C start \"C:/Program Files/application/myapp.exe\"";
