Start another application and exit current java application

843810Feb 10 2008 — edited Jan 19 2010

Hi,

I want to start another application (an executable) and exit my java desktop application. I don't want to wait for the other application to finish. I have tried the java runtime.exec() command. But it won't do it.

I want this to work for all operating systems. Has anyone have ideas?
