Hello,
I am new to python. I am using the os module to run a command in a
bashshell. However I need this process to complete before continuing. Is
there a command that will wait for this process to complete? I am using
Windows XP and the os.wait() command only works for UNIX systems, and
therefore doesn't work.
My code is as follows:
import os
FileName = raw_input('Enter the file name: ')
os.system('abaqus job=FileName')
resultsFile = open('FileName.dat','r')
Abaqus will take a few minutes to complete and create the associated results
file. However once I run this code I get the following error ... "IOError:
[Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'FileName.dat'" ... as the file does
not exist yet. Is there any way of waiting for the job to complete before
continuing?
I'd appreciate any help.
