Field Detail

PIPE

public static final ProcessBuilder.Redirect PIPE
Indicates that subprocess I/O will be connected to the current Java process over a pipe. This is the default handling of subprocess standard I/O.

It will always be true that

 Redirect.PIPE.file() == null &&
 Redirect.PIPE.type() == Redirect.Type.PIPE
 


INHERIT

public static final ProcessBuilder.Redirect INHERIT
Indicates that subprocess I/O source or destination will be the same as those of the current process. This is the normal behavior of most operating system command interpreters (shells).

It will always be true that

 Redirect.INHERIT.file() == null &&
 Redirect.INHERIT.type() == Redirect.Type.INHERIT
 

Method Detail

type

public abstract ProcessBuilder.Redirect.Type type()
Returns the type of this Redirect.

Returns:
the type of this Redirect

file

public File file()
Returns the File source or destination associated with this redirect, or null if there is no such file.

Returns:
the file associated with this redirect, or null if there is no such file

from

public static ProcessBuilder.Redirect from(File file)
Returns a redirect to read from the specified file.

It will always be true that

 Redirect.from(file).file() == file &&
 Redirect.from(file).type() == Redirect.Type.READ
 

Returns:
a redirect to read from the specified file
Throws:
NullPointerException - if the specified file is null

to

public static ProcessBuilder.Redirect to(File file)
Returns a redirect to write to the specified file. If the specified file exists when the subprocess is started, its previous contents will be discarded.

It will always be true that

 Redirect.to(file).file() == file &&
 Redirect.to(file).type() == Redirect.Type.WRITE
 

Returns:
a redirect to write to the specified file
Throws:
NullPointerException - if the specified file is null

appendTo

public static ProcessBuilder.Redirect appendTo(File file)
Returns a redirect to append to the specified file. Each write operation first advances the position to the end of the file and then writes the requested data. Whether the advancement of the position and the writing of the data are done in a single atomic operation is system-dependent and therefore unspecified.

It will always be true that

 Redirect.appendTo(file).file() == file &&
 Redirect.appendTo(file).type() == Redirect.Type.APPEND
 

Returns:
a redirect to append to the specified file
Throws:
NullPointerException - if the specified file is null

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)
Compares the specified object with this Redirect for equality. Returns true if and only if the two objects are identical or both objects are Redirect instances of the same type associated with non-null equal File instances.

Overrides:
equals in class Object
Parameters:
obj - the reference object with which to compare.
Returns:
true if this object is the same as the obj argument; false otherwise.
See Also:
Object.hashCode(), HashMap

hashCode

public int hashCode()
Returns a hash code value for this Redirect.

Overrides:
hashCode in class Object
Returns:
a hash code value for this Redirect
See Also:
Object.equals(java.lang.Object), System.identityHashCode(java.lang.Object)
