hello, I'm trying to launch a windows application, but as many others on this list, I've some trouble. I read some other threads about this topic, but sorry, I still don't understand all this (never heard of pipes).
When I use a batch file, I can launch the bat-file from python, and the windows application launched from the batchfile is run perfectly. Now when I try to run the same windows application from Popen or call, nothing happens (or at least it's very fast and produces not the expected output). Please enlighten me, preferable in "windows-terminology" ;-) thanks, Stef Mientki from subprocess import * cmd =[] cmd.append ( 'D:\\PIC-tools\\JALxxx\\jalv2_3.exe' ) cmd.append ( '-long-start' ) cmd.append ( '-d') cmd.append ( '-clear' ) cmd.append ( '-sD:\\PIC-tools\\JAL\\libs2' ) cmd.append ( 'd:\\pic-tools\\jal\\programs\\test_rs232\\test_rs232_hw.jal' ) cmd.append ( '>d:\\data_actueel\\d7_test_browser\\temp.log' ) # DOESN'T WORK result = call ( cmd ) # Both Popen and call work cmd = [ 'd:\\data_actueel\\d7_test_browser\\JALcc.bat' ] #output = Popen ( cmd ) result = call ( cmd ) print result -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
