通过Java Applet在Mac OSX上运行.pkg安装程序

Question

Here is a short synopsis of what's going on.

Right now I have a java applet that is embedded in my browser that downloads a .dmg disk image and mounts it. Inside of it, it has an installer.pkg file that I need to be able to run so that the user begins to see the install process. I have been trying a few variations of what was provided here but I believe that is only from the terminal.

Essentially, I need to be able to run the .pkg file inside of the mounted disk image not using the terminal. Thanks!

Answer 1

I fixed this by simply using the open command for anyone who is interested. Here is a snippet of code that fixed it:

Process proc = r.exec(new String[] {"open", "/Volumes/HomeDrive/HomeInstaller.pkg"});
int exitVal = proc.waitFor();
