EXECUTE FILE with/without Parameter

[AUGE_OHR]

hi,

when have no Parameter i can use

Code: Select all

EXECUTE FILE( cCommand + CHR( 34 ) + cValue + CHR( 34 ) )

where cCommand := ""

when have Parameter that line seems not to work and i have to use

Code: Select all

   IF lWithPara = .T.
      cCommand := GETENV( "COMSPEC" ) + " /C "
   ENDIF
   IF lWithPara = .T.
      EXECUTE FILE( cCommand + CHR( 34 ) + cValue + CHR( 34 ) ) WAIT
   ELSE
      EXECUTE FILE( cCommand + CHR( 34 ) + cValue + CHR( 34 ) )
   ENDIF

Question : it it possible to use Parameter without WAIT

[dragancesu]

When no work see manual (doc)

EXECUTE

[ OPERATION <operation> ]

[ FILE <file> ]

[ PARAMETERS <parameters> ]

[ DEFAULT <default> ]

[ MAXIMIZE | MINIMIZE | HIDE ]


EXECUTE

[ FILE <file> ]

[ MAXIMIZE | MINIMIZE | HIDE ]

WAIT


The file can be an executable file or a document file.

hi,

thx for Answer.

i have look into Help File and Source of HMG

---

as i understand "EXECUTE FILE" will be #xcommand in c:\hmg.3.4.4\INCLUDE\i_exec.ch

_Execute() in c:\hmg.3.4.4\SOURCE\h_winapimisc.prg point to ShellExecute() which seems not to accept *.BAT, *.CMD or *.LNK

WaitRun in c:\hmg.3.4.4\SOURCE\c_winapimisc.c is a HB_FUNC( WAITRUN ) which CreateProcess() but than use WaitForSingleObject()

---

i´m searching for HB_FUNC(RUN) which just return Handle of new Process.
