The call I coded works if you only pass a string with no spaces.
However, if the string has spaces there is no result. If you break the string into String[] then clojure cannot match the appropriate exec(String[]) method in Runtime. I do not know how to convince clojure to call this method. alux wrote:

Runtime (getRuntime)) (exec args)) (getInputStream)))))) (defn readLine [cmdresult] (. cmdresult (readLine))) (def a (cmdresult "ls *.o")) This fails claiming: No matching method found: exec for class java.lang.Runtime If I replace the Runtime line with: (. (. (. Runtime (getRuntime)) (exec "ls")) (getInputStream)))))) it works and gives me the result of the "ls" system call. If I replace the Runtime line with (. (. (. Runtime (getRuntime)) (exec "ls *.o")) (getInputStream)))))) it fails even though it has a string argument. Suggestions? Tim Daly
