Clearing the dos screen using java

[seema mani]

hi
I want to clear the dos screen using java.
I saw 2 solutions on the net(given below) , but both did not work. Can someone
advise how I can go about doing this ? I'm
working on Windows2000.

Thanks in advance.

Seema

1. char esc = 27; // ESC code
String clear = esc + "[2J" // note case
System.out.print(clear); // Dos screen should be cleared

2. Runtime.getRuntime().exec( "cmd.exe /c cls" ) ;
