Here's my problem: I'm working on a program which decompiles an APK file. It was working. After the previous Java Update my application is giving me an exception.

Please help me.

UPDATE:

• New Java version - Version 7 Update 2

• Stack trace:

  Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Executable name has embedded quote, split the arguments at java.lang.ProcessImpl.isQuoted(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ProcessImpl.getExecutablePath(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ProcessImpl.(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ProcessImpl.start(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ProcessBuilder.start(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Runtime.exec(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Runtime.exec(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Runtime.exec(Unknown Source) at ro.etrandafir.mate.PC.decompile.StartingPoint.execute(StartingPoint.java:146) at ro.etrandafir.mate.PC.decompile.StartingPoint.main(StartingPoint.java:25)

• Source code:

  try {
      Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("\"" + apktoolBat
              .getAbsolutePath() + "\" d -s " + fn);
      BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(
              new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
      String line = null;
      while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
          System.out.println("Apktool: " + line);
      }
  } catch (IOException e) {
      System.err.println("ERROR: Could not use APKTOOL!");
      e.printStackTrace();
      return;
  }
  

Thanks in advance!
