Exactly what does your code look like?

When you call Runtime.exec() you can pass just 1 string, or you can pass an array of strings. I think the key might be to use an array of strings... I have two working snippets that don't *quite* do what you want (because that would be too easy)... but if you combine them it should work:

Snippet 1:
String[] cmd = {"open",file.getAbsolutePath()};
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);

Snippet 2:
String[] cmdline = new String[] { "open", "-a", getAplicationPath()};

I'm unclear whether you've tried using arrays of strings or not, though... let me know if this helps. If it doesn't, what does your code look like so we can test?

All,
I am running into a problem launching Photoshop from my application. I
use the following String to launch Photoshop along with an image using
exec().
Open -a "Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS2/Adobe Photoshop CS2.app"
"/Users/administrator/myapp/tmp/{555}_01.jpg"
If I use the same string on command line the Photoshop does launch with
the image. Interesting part is if I create a shortcut to Photoshop
application that does work.
