Start a jar file from another java application and debug its output

[dusky lichen]

So basically i start a jar file from another java app and i want to display that started jar's output with a System.out.println using the application that i use for starting that jar.

This is the code i'm actually using simply for starting it but i need to find a way to get its debug
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("java -jar wizzed.jar " + currentSex + "/config.yml").waitFor();

I'm not sure if this is exactly what you want, but java -agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,address=8080,server=y,suspend=n -jar should run the jar in a debugger

[dusky lichen]

then how can i access the debugger from the program?

[patent pendant]

Elaborate.

[dusky lichen]

so i start wizzed.jar with those parameters using my program and then from my program how can i access that jar file's debugger?
