[pde-dev] Using getRuntime().exec() in plugin with Vista and UAC
|
Hi,
I'm currently working on an eclipse plugin and under Windows, I need it to
run a simple executable program that changes some IP configurations in the
registry. Obviously, this kind of executable requires elevated privileges.
But even though I created my executable so that it will prompt the user for
the administrator password when double-clicked or ran through the command
prompt, when used with getRuntime().exec(), it doesn't.
All I get instead is an exception saying that it needs to be run under
elevated privileges. I know that running Eclipse as admin would fix the
problem, but I guess that's not really a solution :P
Does anyone know if there is actually a way for a plugin to get such
privileges? Or simplys if there is some way in java to do so?
Thanks a lot!
Franck
