Please post where you got that from so I can see the actual javadoc.
And I disagree about inputStream, but I agree that errorStream should be an
outputStream
Take care,
Sina

Sina, the docs say
InputStream getErrorStream();
InputStream getInputStream();
OutputStream getOutputStream();
If I'm the parent process and just spawned this process, then the last 2 return
types should be switched as I will be writing to
input and reading from output.
Note that err and out are treated inconsistently.
Is this a bug? Do I need to do some obscure pipe operations to get the input
and output flowing correctly? Then why was err handled
differently from out?
You're a java expert, perhaps you can settle this. I am just now getting ready
to compile my code, which should tell me if my types
are mismatched.
I'll be posting to list hopefully soon.
TIA

The human part of javadoc can be incorrect, although I find this doubtful.
However, the actual return type of the methods, as you've discussed, are not
incorrect. They might not meet expectations, but it is
automatically generated, so I find it next to impossible for this to be
incorrect.
Take care,
Sina

Is there an easyer way to search the java reference pages by class or by
category? I'm having a fun time playing with process and
runtime and streams and the like, but some of the docs are indeed incorrect,
despite what Mike is saying.
I am looking at the link you sent me about the getInputStream() etc methods
in class Process.
Perhaps I will go look for a download link, but I don't have much space on
my hd.
I will post what I have so far shortly, but indeed I know the docs are
wrong, because they are inconsistent. Compiling will solve
the dilemma.
