I didn't see it in the documentation, and I've been looking through example programs to find this out. How do I wait for a command to complete? For instance, I'm attempting to do an Export with the BaseX Java API. What I don't understand is how I can block execution until the command is finished... I looked quickly at Process and the Context class and did not find anything revealing.
Adrien, sorry for the late feedback. Usually, your code will always be blocked until the Export command has finished. If this doesn't match with your own experience, feel free to pass us on your source code.
Best, Christian

Actually it was a misunderstanding of the documentation I suppose... I used Export("/.../filename.xml"), and the file silently would never be created. Instead I used Export("/.../", "filename.xml") and it worked just fine. I suspected a threading issue of some sort, but that wasn't it.
