process - In java, open file with system default application and wait until it is modified and closed

Question

I need to open a file with its default system application, wait until closed (if it was modified or not) and then handle the file again.

I know JAVA offers Desktop.open() interface, which opens the file with its default app. Then, it offers Runtime.exec(), which starts a process and returns the reference to it.

But I would need an API which provides a combined functionality. I found a topic with 2 non-sufficient answers: Java - Desktop.getDesktop().open() - Wait until file is open?

Can anybody give me any tip or help? Thanks
