i'm using processbuilder execute bash commands:
import java.io.ioexception; public class main { public static void main(string[] args) { try { process pb = new processbuilder("gedit").start(); } catch (ioexception e) { e.printstacktrace(); } } } but want make this:
process pb = new processbuilder("sudo", "gedit").start(); how pass superuser password bash?
("gksudo", "gedit") not trick, because deleted since ubuntu 13.04 , need available default commands.
edit
gksudo came ubuntu 13.04 last update.
i think can use this, i'm bit hesitant post it. i'll say:
use @ own risk, not recommended, don't sue me, etc...
public static void main(string[] args) throws ioexception { string[] cmd = {"/bin/bash","-c","echo password| sudo -s ls"}; process pb = runtime.getruntime().exec(cmd); string line; bufferedreader input = new bufferedreader(new inputstreamreader(pb.getinputstream())); while ((line = input.readline()) != null) { system.out.println(line); } input.close(); }
