Get process number of Java application

I have the following script:

java -cp "some-classpath" my.package.MyClass
echo $1 > "$java_file"

The Java process starts a server.

I would like to get the process ID of the Java command and to write it to the file $java_file. Then, using that, I will kill the server.

However, nothing is written in the file.

How can I get the process ID?

You should use:

java -cp "some-classpath" my.package.MyClass &
echo $! > "$java_file"
