exec() returns a Process object. You can obtain stdout and stdin of this Process through its methods getInputStream() and getOutputStream().Don't fit into native methods though ...

Have these methods not been deprecated since JDK1.1? It says you can replace them using outputstreamreader and writer - how is this done?Thanks.

None of the methods I mentioned have been deprecated. Readers and Writers are, however, the proper way to interface to text streams. This means, they are another level of abstraction on top of the stream, they do, however, not replace it.
