B4J Question How to start an external programm on windows ?

[GMan]

How can i call and start an external program on a windows pc ?
Seems that the SHELL command is rigth, but this here dont work:

in Appstart

    Dim shl As Shell
    shl.Initialize("shl", "java", _
     Array As String("mysoftware.exe"))
    shl.WorkingDirectory = "C:\Program Files (x86)\MySoftware\"
    shl.Run(10000)

additional sub

Sub shl_ProcessCompleted (Success As Boolean, ExitCode As Int, StdOut As String, StdErr As String)
    If Success And ExitCode = 0 Then
        Log("Success")
        Log(StdOut)
    Else
        Log("Error: " & StdErr)
    End If
    ExitApplication
End Sub

dont work

do you get any error?

 

[GMan]

Sorry, forgot it:
Hauptklasse mysoftware.exe konnte nicht gefunden oder geladen werden

Is the code with the Working Dircetory with "\" correct ?
But also without it causes the same error

 

[DonManfred]

try it with

fx.ShowExternalDocument("C:\Program Files (x86)\MySoftware\mysoftware.exe")

Not sure if that works.

Hauptklasse mysoftware.exe konnte nicht gefunden oder geladen werden

what is mysoftware.exe for an executable? What is the development you used to generate this? It is a packaged java app?

 

[GMan]

Thx a lot (again) DonManfred - that does the trick
The mysoftware.exe is another JavaExecutable.will call one from the other for supporting each other

btw: have a look to your Moneypool
