B4J Question [JShell] How to run an EXE file created with B4JPackager11

[Omar Moreno]

Hi.
With the JShell library, how should you run a program (JAR) that I have packaged with B4JPackager11 (EXE).

When I run the shell it throws this at me:

Success: false
ExitCode: -559038737
StdOut:
StdErr: org.apache.commons.exec.ExecuteException: Execution failed (Exit value: -559038737. Caused by java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "P1.exe" (in directory "F: \ PROGRAMMING \ B4J \ Packaged Program" ): CreateProcess error = 2, The system cannot find the specified file)

Private Sh1 as Shell

Sh1.Encoding = "utf8"
Sh1.Initialize("Sh1", Aplicacion, Null)
Sh1.WorkingDirectory  =  TextField1.Text
Sh1.Run(-1)

Try with the attached files, P1 package it with B4JPackager11 and copy the path of P1.exe into Shell_P1, Shell_P1 will say it can't find P1.exe ....

How should I correctly run the Shell?


Thanks for the help.

Your path to the file seems to have a lot of extra spaces in it.
"F: \ PROGRAMMING \ B4J \ Packaged Program"

Thank you for responding, but I still deleted the spaces and still can't find the file...

Solved...

The only way to run the EXE is by adding full file path to the second parameter of Initialize

Dim FullPath as String = File.Combine(TextFiel1.Text.Trim, Aplicacion)


Private Sh1 as Shell
Sh1.Encoding = "utf8"
Sh1.Initialize("Sh1", FullPath, Null)
Sh1.WorkingDirectory  =  TextField1.Text
Sh1.Run(-1)

I thought WorkingDirectory was used for jshell to search for the EXE.

Regards.

I thought WorkingDirectory was used for jshell to search for the EXE.

No. WorkingDirectory sets the "base folder" of the running process.
