Interface IRemoteProcessBuilder

All Known Implementing Classes:
AbstractRemoteProcessBuilder

public interface IRemoteProcessBuilder

Abstraction of a process builder for remote processes. This interface behaves in the same manner as ProcessBuilder.

static int FORWARD_X11
          Flag to request X11 forwarding (RFC-4254 Sec. 6.3)
static int NONE
           
 
Method Summary
 List<String> command()
          Returns this process builder's operating system program and arguments.
 IRemoteProcessBuilder command(List<String> command)
          Sets this process builder's operating system program and arguments.
 IRemoteProcessBuilder command(String... command)
          Sets this process builder's operating system program and arguments.
 IRemoteConnection connection()
          Returns this process builder's connection.
 IRemoteProcessBuilder connection(IRemoteConnection conn)
          Sets this process builder's connection.
 IFileStore directory()
          Returns this process builder's working directory.
 IRemoteProcessBuilder directory(IFileStore directory)
          Sets this process builder's working directory.
 Map<String,String> environment()
          Returns a string map view of this process builder's environment.
 int getSupportedFlags()
          Get the flags that are supported by this process builder.
 boolean redirectErrorStream()
          Tells whether this process builder merges standard error and standard output.
 IRemoteProcessBuilder redirectErrorStream(boolean redirectErrorStream)
          Sets this process builder's redirectErrorStream property.
 IRemoteProcess start()
          Starts a new process using the attributes of this process builder.
 IRemoteProcess start(int flags)

Method Detail

command

List<String> command()
Returns this process builder's operating system program and arguments.

Returns:
a list containing the program and arguments

command

IRemoteProcessBuilder command(List<String> command)
Sets this process builder's operating system program and arguments.

Parameters:
command -
Returns:
This process builder

command

IRemoteProcessBuilder command(String... command)
Sets this process builder's operating system program and arguments.

Parameters:
command -
Returns:
this process builder

connection

IRemoteConnection connection()
Returns this process builder's connection.

Returns:
the connection used by this process builder

connection

IRemoteProcessBuilder connection(IRemoteConnection conn)
Sets this process builder's connection.

Returns:
This process builder

directory

IFileStore directory()
Returns this process builder's working directory.

Returns:
an IFileStore reference to the working directory

directory

IRemoteProcessBuilder directory(IFileStore directory)
Sets this process builder's working directory.

Parameters:
directory -
Returns:
This process builder

environment

Map<String,String> environment()
Returns a string map view of this process builder's environment. The returned map behaves in the same manner as described in ProcessBuilder.environment().

Returns:
the process builder's environment

getSupportedFlags

int getSupportedFlags()
Get the flags that are supported by this process builder.

Returns:
bitwise-or of the supported flags
Since:
5.0

redirectErrorStream

boolean redirectErrorStream()
Tells whether this process builder merges standard error and standard output.

Returns:
true if standard error and standard output will be merged

redirectErrorStream

IRemoteProcessBuilder redirectErrorStream(boolean redirectErrorStream)
Sets this process builder's redirectErrorStream property.

Parameters:
redirectErrorStream -
Returns:
This process builder

start

IRemoteProcess start()
                     throws IOException
Starts a new process using the attributes of this process builder.

Returns:
remote process object
Throws:
IOException

start

IRemoteProcess start(int flags)
                     throws IOException
Starts a new process using the attributes of this process builder. The flags may be used to modify behavior of the remote process. These flags may only be supported by specific types of remote service providers. Clients can use getSupportedFlags() to find out the flags supported by the service provider.
 Current flags are:
   NONE                 - disable any flags
   ALLOCATE_PTY - allocate a pseudo-terminal for the process (RFC-4254 Sec. 6.2)
   FORWARD_X11  - enable X11 forwarding (RFC-4254 Sec. 6.3)
 

Parameters:
flags - bitwise-or of flags to use when starting process
Returns:
remote process object
Throws:
IOException
Since:
5.0
