Hello ..

I am new to java and also cygwin . I do not have in detailed knowledge of both .

I need some help..

I simple steps i will try to explain my problem.

1) I am working on tinyOS . its open source OS , used for wireless sensor networks. It provides java libraries to work on communication (PC to sensor)

2) I am working on windows xp environment through cigwin.

3) I am developing an application . THis application requires one java interface called "Serial Forwarder" , which is readily available in libraries provided. Previously i used to start this interface manually (by entering command *"java net.tinyos.sf.SerialForwarder ")*and then my application which uses this interface. But now i want to make my application independent . User need know about this background cygwin commands .

4) So in my java application i used

"Runtime.getRuntime().exec( "java net.tinyos.sf.SerialForwarder)" .

5) This i neither giving any error nor starting the interface.

Am I going on right way ?
When i am using runtime execute command , how can i make sure that this command is called through cigwin interface ?

Also .. if i want to write .bat file .. i which i can give commands which will be executed .. how can i make sure that those commands are given through cigwin .. and not through cmd.exe .. Please help . me .
