Read the Output from Java Exec

read the output from java exec

Use getErrorStream().

BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(pr.getErrorStream()));

EDIT:

You can use ProcessBuilder (and also read the documentation)

ProcessBuilder   ps=new ProcessBuilder("java.exe","-version");

//From the DOC:  Initially, this property is false, meaning that the 
//standard output and error output of a subprocess are sent to two 
//separate streams
ps.redirectErrorStream(true);

Process pr = ps.start();  

BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(pr.getInputStream()));
String line;
while ((line = in.readLine()) != null) {
    System.out.println(line);
}
pr.waitFor();
System.out.println("ok!");

in.close();
System.exit(0);

Java Runtime.getRuntime(): getting output from executing a command line program

Here is the way to go:

Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
String[] commands = {"system.exe", "-get t"};
Process proc = rt.exec(commands);

BufferedReader stdInput = new BufferedReader(new 
     InputStreamReader(proc.getInputStream()));

BufferedReader stdError = new BufferedReader(new 
     InputStreamReader(proc.getErrorStream()));

// Read the output from the command
System.out.println("Here is the standard output of the command:\n");
String s = null;
while ((s = stdInput.readLine()) != null) {
    System.out.println(s);
}

// Read any errors from the attempted command
System.out.println("Here is the standard error of the command (if any):\n");
while ((s = stdError.readLine()) != null) {
    System.out.println(s);
}

Read the Javadoc for more details here. ProcessBuilder would be a good choice to use.

How to get an live output from runtime execution in java?

Your process.waitFor() call is a blocking call, and only unblocks when the process ends, preventing your streams from working, since the streams will be closed when the process has ended.

Read from the stream in a separate thread that you call the .waitFor() in, or read from the stream before calling .waitFor()

Runtime runtime = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process process = runtime.exec("cmd.exe /c kotlinc -script " + script.getAbsolutePath());
BufferedReader bufferedReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(process.getInputStream()));
String line = "";
while ((line = bufferedReader.readLine()) != null){
    System.out.println(line);
}
int exitValue = process.waitFor();

Incidentally, I would use a ProcessBuilder to get the Process, and not Runtime.getRuntime()

Read live output of process in java

Using https://github.com/zeroturnaround/zt-exec

new ProcessExecutor().command("python", "script.py")
    .redirectOutput(new LogOutputStream() {
        @Override
        protected void processLine(String line) {
            ...
        }
    })
    .execute();

Read Outputinformation of ffmpeg-process runned from java Runtime.exec(...)

I got the solution: Use ProcesssBuilder and StringBuilder!

Process processDuration = new ProcessBuilder("ffmpeg", "-i", absolutePath).redirectErrorStream(true).start();
StringBuilder strBuild = new StringBuilder();
try (BufferedReader processOutputReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(processDuration.getInputStream(), Charset.defaultCharset()));) {
    String line;
    while ((line = processOutputReader.readLine()) != null) {
        strBuild.append(line + System.lineSeparator());
    }
    processDuration.waitFor();
}
String outputJson = strBuild.toString().trim();

it works fine for me and I'm glad to share this with everyone in the Internet :)
I got the solution from here.
