Read from another process' output stream

Question

i wanted to read the output-stream of a c-Application in my Java program. iremoted (available here: http://osxbook.com/software/iremoted/download/iremoted.c) is a C-App

Answer 1

iremoted is likely writing to stderr if a hello world program works. You would want the error stream in that case. I'm not sure how this works for your hello world case - I think you're doing the wrong thing here:

 new InputStreamReader(process.getInputStream()); 

should be

 new InputStreamReader(process.getOutputStream());

or

 new InputStreamReader(process.getErrorStream());
