Null value

[Michael]

Hi everybody,
I want to display the results of avgscan.exe c:\Foldername
using java code
The following is my code snippet. I got a value null
Can anybody help me ?

Runtime run = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process pp=run.exec("C:\\Program Files\\Grisoft\\AVG Free\\avgscan c:\\VirusScan");
BufferedReader in =new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(pp.getInputStream()));
System.out.println(in.readLine());

Please don't ask your questions on existing thread, if it is not related to you. Next time start a new thread in such a case. Don't do it this time. I'll move this thread to correct place. :)

Why are you try to execute two process at once. Remove one and try it.

To give arguments you have to do it in the following way:

String[] cmd = {
"C:\\Program Files\\Grisoft\\AVG Free\\avgscan", // Command
"c:\\VirusScan" // Argument
};
Process pp=run.exec(cmd);

Try it,

Ferran
