commons-exec: hanging when I call executor.execute(commandLine);
- by Stefan Kendall
I have no idea why this is hanging. I'm trying to capture output from a process run through commons-exec, and I continue to hang. I've provided an example program to demonstrate this behavior below.
import java.io.DataInputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PipedInputStream;
import java.io.PipedOutputStream;
import org.apache.commons.exec.CommandLine;
import org.apache.commons.exec.DefaultExecutor;
import org.apache.commons.exec.ExecuteException;
import org.apache.commons.exec.PumpStreamHandler;
public class test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String command = "java";
PipedOutputStream output = new PipedOutputStream();
PumpStreamHandler psh = new PumpStreamHandler(output);
CommandLine cl = CommandLine.parse(command);
DefaultExecutor exec = new DefaultExecutor();
DataInputStream is = null;
try {
is = new DataInputStream(new PipedInputStream(output));
exec.setStreamHandler(psh);
exec.execute(cl);
} catch (ExecuteException ex) {
} catch (IOException ex) {
}
System.out.println("huh?");
}
}
