Calling external programs from Java?

796293Aug 28 2008 — edited Aug 29 2008
Hi All,

Is there a way of calling external applications from Java without using Runtime.exec(). That method seems quite messy when you are dealing with streaming data from an input file to an output file. Basically what I'm asking is there a way to run a command the same way you would type it in a command shell?

Thanks
