I need to run a Unix command from java using Jsch. When I execute this command in the local console of my server, the console shows me a message to insert some parameters:
$ cd /mycinema
$ films
$ Insert the title:
But I do not know how to capture this from java so I can detect that it requires a parameter and be able to insert the title and return the result of the movie without closing the channel or session. Any ideas? My code right now is this (copied from another thread in this forum):
