Hello NG,
I have a GUI (written in wxPython) that calls some external exe files. Some of them requires that I add to the PATH variable 1 directory. Basically, the exe are located in:
/MyApp/Solvers/FirstExe /MyApp/Solvers/SecondExe
And so on, while the dll needed by these exe are located in:
/MyApp/MyDll
These exe files do not work if I don't set the PATH variable also to that adress. I know I can do it by hand (and also my users can), but I wonder if there is a way to do it in Python...
Thank you for all suggestions/pointers.
Andrea.
Why not just adding in your app
import os os.environ['PATH'] += ";the_new_adress_needed_by_exe"
this will just modify locally to your app the environement variable PATH
If you want to modify it for ever, just open a console DOS (cmd.exe) and type:
set PATH=%PATH%;the_new_adress_needed_by_exe
