Unable to execute Java Code "Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start runScript.bat");" using Jenkins

[Pritam Sharma]

Hi All, 

    I am trying to execute a java class which contains the code :

 "Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start runScript.bat");" 

I'm using apache ANT 1.7 and JDK7, when I call the ANT target from my Jenkins job ,It skips

this line of code "Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start runScript.bat");" but doesn't throw any error also.So this runScript.bat file is not getting executed. (Also if I use only ANT, it is working fine.)

  Please suggest me how to handle this problem.

Regards
