Shutdown Windows using Java

Using JNI for it may be an overkill ...


may try

String command = ""; ( click here for shutdown_command )
Process child = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);


Or may be try one of these ...
Try one of these (they've both worked, but there might be problems with one - too long ago, don't remember, though )

C:\WINDOWS\RUNDLL32.EXE SHELL32.DLL,SHExitWindowsEx 1
C:\WINDOWS\RUNDLL32.EXE user,exitwindows

ya best is write the command in a batch file and call the batch file from java. Respect all OS as well. so dont forgot to add:

os.name check

You can use JWSF (Java Windows Shutdown Functions) to shutdown,reboot,log-off, and lock any 32bit windows system.
