how to provide password to sudo command

[jaibhim max]

Hi,

I am creating an application that requires "sudo" permissions to execute. So, if I try to execute mount command then I need to run following command.

sudo mount server_name:/d/dir /home/mydir

To run the above command, I need to run it in java code as -

Runtime.getRuntime.exec("sudo mount server_name:/d/dir /home/mydir");

In the above case, sudo asks for sudo password at the terminal. How should I write the java code that will allow me to provide sudo password.

Please help me out because its too urgent
