Can a Java application be loaded in a separate process using its name, as opposed to its location, in a platform independent manner?
I know you can execute a program via ...
Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec( COMMAND );
... the main issue of this method is that such calls are then platform specific.
Ideally, I'd wrap a method into something as simple as...
EXECUTE.application( CLASS_TO_BE_EXECUTED );
... and pass in the fully qualified name of an application class as CLASS_TO_BE_EXECUTED.
