enable java command scripting on GUI for end-user use
Hi,
I have following java command as below, we want to enable it to GUI for end-user use, my boss didn't want user running command line, is there any ways to do that?
java -jar xxxxxx.jar compare ${1} ${2} output-file.doc
Ideally, user can input file1 and file2 on the interface and then run above java command.
Server and client platform are Mac OSX server and Mac computer receptivity.
Apart from java environment, is it possible use PHP associate with above java command to accomplish that?

Do you have Java code of what is in your jar file or just classes?

wesly,
I also need to write PHP to handle error in case end-user didn't input the filename, wrong file name, wrong path, etc, let me try to use your suggestion.

Write PHP is easy for me, but I have no experience for the PHP code associate with Java comand, if java have run-time error, can PHP can handle this! Let me try, I don't mind to post the code if the program run successful!

>>But the exit code/reval should be the same as "nonzero" if failed.
Only if the java app has been written correctly. Exit codes often aren't by Java programmers - you might be lucky ;)

I have got the problem, PHP code cannot capture file path, I am thinking another way to accomplish that!
