Web app framework to call command line program

We're designing a Java EE web app (to run on tomcat)

It's intended to be a web interface for a command line program. Is there any framework/application that allows this?

i.e. JSP pages which will internally fire commands to a program installed on the same server as the Tomcat server.

The command line is a 开发者_Python百科propietary non-Java program.

You can use java.lang.Runtime and its exec(..) methods to start command-line programs.

---

You can make your own, its pretty simple,

capture command from jsp,And execute it on server using

Runtime.getRuntime().exec(commands);

and send back the response

---

Be aware that your security manager will probably restrict the use of Runtime.exec() inside of your application server...

I've found this article to be invaluable when using .exec

It has quite a lot of good example code, and shows many of the pitfalls.
