Java – How do I open vi editor from my Java application in the same terminal?

How do I open the vi editor from my java app?
I’ve tried this

Process p = new ProcessBuilder("xterm","-e","vi /backup/xyz/test/abc.txt").start();  

int exitVal = p.waitFor();
System.out.println("Exited with error code "+exitVal);

But this opens vi in a new terminal. I want the vi editor to open in the same terminal where my app runs

It should be simple: skip xterm and start vi: directly

Process p = new ProcessBuilder("vi", "/backup/xyz/test/abc.txt").start();  

If you want more command-line arguments for vi, add them as separate strings, not in the “” of the first argument.

Starting a terminal

program like vi naturally requires launching a java application from a visible terminal, so vi has a terminal to use, but I think so.
