Message:
Clear screen of msdos using Java
Posted by Allan Cahill on April 21, 2000 at 9:36 AM
I am trying to find out how to clear an msdos screen using java In c++, there was a function called clrscr() which used to serve this purpose - java does not seem to have anything similiar. I have looked everywhere for a solution, and tried many different suggestions none of which work. For example...it was suggested to use ANSI terminal sequences, but this failed.. also tried the following - Runtime r = Runtime.getRuntime (); Process p = r.exec ("cmd /c cls"); but what this was doing was clearing another thread - not the main one i was working on. I need a way of using the above to clear the main thread, or some alternate suggestion of a solution that ppl might be aware of. This is an urgent issue and would appreciate any and all assistance. rgds. Allan
