source code of process.java

[chalani]

Hi...

I was unable to find the implementation of process.java. What i need is the implementation of waitFor() method of process.java. but at every place what i find is the abstract class. could any of you send me an implementation code of the process.java

thnkx...

Check your JDK installation directory. There's usually a zipped file containing the sources of the standard Java classes.

The source of that part isn't there: when you drill down the Process class you'll
end up in the ProcessImpl class that has a native 'create()' method that actually
creates another process for you through a 'priviledged' action. It's all C and/or
C++ down there (which doesn't surprise me).

kind regards,

How did you get to the ProcessImpl class?

How did you get to the ProcessImpl class?

I took this route: Runtime.exec() calls a ProcessBuilder which calls a ProcessImpl.

And that indeed is it.Hopefully the OP won't ask us where to get the C/C++ codes for that.

Why do you need to see the implementation? Isn't consulting the API enough?
