How to invoke and pass arguments to a batch file from a java code
Hi
I have a batch file (marcxml.bat) which has the following excerpt :
@echo off
if x==%1x goto howto
java -cp C:\Downloads\Marcxml\marc4j.jar; C:\Downloads\Marcxml\marcxml.jar; %1 %2 %3
goto end
I'm calling this batch file from a java code with the following line of code:
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start C:/Downloads/Marcxml/marcxml.bat");
so ,that invokes the batch file.Till that point its ok.
since the batch file accpets arguments(%1 %2 %3) how do i pass those arguments to the batch file from my code ...?
%1 is a classname : for ex: gov.loc.marcxml.MARC21slim2MARC
%2 is the name of the input file for ex : C:/Downloads/Marcxml/source.xml
%3 is the name of the output file for ex: C:/Downloads/Marcxml/target.mrc
could someone help me...
if i include these parameters too along with the above line of code i.e
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start C:/Downloads/Marcxml/marcxml.bat gov.loc.marcxml.MARC21slim2MARC C:\\Downloads\\Marcxml\\source.xml C:\\Downloads\\Marcxml\\target.mrc") ;
I get the following error :
Exception in thread main java.lang.Noclassdef foundError: c:Downloads\marcxml\source/xml
could some one tell me if i'm doing the right way in passing the arguments to the batch file if not what is the right way?
