java gdb runtime

Question

how do you execute gdb commands using process object in java?

charmae@charmae-pc:~/Desktop$ gcc -g file.c
charmae@charmae-pc:~/Desktop$ gdb ./a.out

(gdb) run
Starting program: /home/charmae/Desktop/a.out 
address of x = 0xbffff2f8
address of y= 0xbffff2fc
address of x = 0xbffff2f8
value of x = 1
[Inferior 1 (process 4268) exited with code 017]
(gdb)

In my java code:

 Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
 Process proc = rt.exec("gdb ./a.out");
                rt.exec("run");
 BufferedReader std = new BufferedReader(new 
                     InputStreamReader(proc.getErrorStream()));
 while ((s = std.readLine()) != null) {
                 System.out.println(s);
               }

Yey! Answered my own question.. i used pipe processing.

    public class GDBpipeWriter extends Thread{

        public void run(){
        Process p = null;
        try {
        p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("gdb a.out --interpreter=console");
       new Thread(new SyncPipe(p.getErrorStream(), System.err)).start();
       new Thread(new SyncPipe(p.getInputStream(), System.out)).start();
        PrintWriter stdin = new PrintWriter(p.getOutputStream());

        stdin.flush();
        stdin.println("break 4");
        stdin.flush();
        stdin.println("break 10");
        stdin.flush();
        stdin.println("run");
        stdin.flush();

        /// write any other commands you want here
       // stdin.close();


        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        }
    }


class SyncPipe implements Runnable
{
public SyncPipe(InputStream istrm, OutputStream ostrm) {
      istrm_ = istrm;
      ostrm_ = ostrm;
  }
  public void run() {
      try
      {
          final byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
          for (int length = 0; (length = istrm_.read(buffer)) != -1; )
          {
              ostrm_.write(buffer, 0, length);
          }

      }
      catch (Exception e)
      {
          e.printStackTrace();
      }
  }
  private final OutputStream ostrm_;
  private final InputStream istrm_;
}
