Methods for System Calls?

[justride]

Hi all,

Are there any classes to make system calls? I would like to kill a certain processes that is running, can I do this with a pre-defined method?

Thanks

Look into Runtime.exec()

Nope. I think you'll either need to use Runtime.getRuntime().exec() to run a command in your environment, or resort to using JNI to call the OS.

Maybe there's some stuff out there to do what you're after. Maybe Google could help?
