It will depend on the OS that you are running and grabbing the PID. In most
unix systems, the PID of the last executed process is in the variable $!. You
can store this in a file for later retrieval if necessary. You can also add a
very specific -D property and then use a combination of the ps, grep and awk
commands to figure out the PID.
java -Dmyantprocess
ps -efww | grep 'myantprocess' | awk '{print $1}'
All of this again depends on your OS and the available tools you have.
