    • Minor Change

      The following lines call Runtime.getRuntime().exec():

      ./src/main/com/mongodb/io/StreamUtil.java:44:        Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec( command );
./src/main/com/mongodb/util/TestCase.java:251:        Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec( "find " + dir );

      This is causing an issue with a security audit. Can they be removed or moved to the test source directory?
