This doesn't works!!
But, if I execute my .bat from dos it works... what's the problem?
Can you help me!!!
I'm angry! :)

Please use code tags when posting code.
Use ProcessBuilder or Runtime.exec(String, String[])

  • How can I execute a DOS console application in TS and how to post parameter to ti?

    Hi
    I have a DOS application which is used to program SN to product,
    When I run the application out of TS, 3 actions need to be done, first is to enter the SN then press "Enter", second is to enter the ComCode and then press "Enter",then the app will ask to confirm "Y" or "N".
    Now the SN and ComCode is kept in locals, how can I invoke such an app to implement the process and pass all parameter to it.
    *The best Chinese farmer*

    Hi Farmer
    Now I have no environment to implement your idea due to the running product line.
    I have got your mean that I shoule transfer parameters as C entry point, main ( argv, argc), am I right?
    In fact I do not validate the source code pass SN and ComCode as your mean, because it's the custom's, I do not have source code.
    In other words, source code may be use "scanf" to accept the parameter and implement actions, maybe other more method.
    Sorry for this is only my thought without no action.
    I will execute1 your advice ASAP.
    Thanks a lot.

  • How can I run a dos command from java on windows 98, 95?

    The usage of cmd.exe in the java program to run a dos command on windows 98. 95 doesn't work as the equivalent command is command.exe
    But using the command.exe in the java program makes my program to hang.

    hi,
    As u mentioned, u cannot use the cmd.exe in win9x environment as cmd.exe is specific to windows NT, you can use the command.exe without any hitches.
    for eg
    java.lang.Runtime.getRuntime().exec("start command /K a.bat"); should run the batch file a.bat..
    if the problem persists, try posting the snippet of code that you are using.

  • How can I execute a batch file from my java program

    Hi,
    Can someone help me or direct me to a link,
    How can I execute a DOS batch file from my java program?
    Thanks

    You will need to grab a handle to the process's
    outputstream so u can see its output.The OP didn't mention any output from any batch file;
    nor any input for that
    matter,so lets not complicate matters here for now
    ok?Actually I think this is essential to see whether it works or not. It's either that or do some manual check to see whether it ran, which is not exactly elegant, and in some cases this may not be easier than simply writing the output stream code, or in fact it may be impossible to check manually.
    I'm sure it wasn't intentional that your post appeared to be bristling with attitude.

    just execute the exelfile with the Windows "start" command:
    Runtime.exec("cmd /c start "+excelFileName);But this requires that Excel is the default application for the Excel file type (*.xls). You can test this by simply typing "start myTestExcel.xls" in a dos box.

  • Execute a DOS command in java

    Hi all,
    Is it possible to execute a DOS command in java? If so, how do I do that?
    Also, if it is a Linux machine, may I execute a Linux command in java?
    Thanks for your help.
    Regards,
    Bernard

    First, define 'command'.
    You can run external programs with Runtime.exec (eg. Runtime.getRuntime().exec("notepad");) but there are a few drawbacks regarding that method.

    Hi,
    You use Runtime.exec to execute commands / exe-files. See the documentation (and remember that it will only work on windows):

  • How can I execute program after using F4_Filename function?

    Hi all,
    I'm a new user on the forum. I've been working with ABAP and SAP for a few weeks. I wrote a program for importing data from excel file to SAP using BDC. During searching this forum I found information about F4_Filename function which allows users to browse the disc for a file. I'd like to add this function to my program. I have a parameter for a file name but this is an ordinary static string field. When I added the code which I found in the message on this forum the rest of program doesn't execute.
    This is simple program for example:
    REPORT  Z_TEST8_AB.
    DATA f_name TYPE STRING.
    PARAMETERS p_file like rlgrap-filename DEFAULT 'c:\test.xls'.
    f_name = p_file.
    write:/ f_name.
    This program works correctly. There is a field for parameter. I can change the default name for a file.
    After all, I can run the program (F8) and rest of the code is executed. The field for parameter dissapears from the screen and the file name is displayed. ( command write)
    Now I added a function F4_Filename
    REPORT  Z_TEST8_AB.
    DATA f_name TYPE STRING.
    PARAMETERS p_file like rlgrap-filename DEFAULT 'c:\test.xls'.
    at selection-screen on value-request for p_file.
      call function 'F4_FILENAME'
           exporting
                program_name  = syst-repid
                dynpro_number = syst-dynnr
                field_name    = 'p_file'
           importing
                file_name     = p_file.
    f_name = p_file.
    write:/ f_name.
    I can browse a computer for a file now but after selecting the file I can't run the rest of the code. When I click on the icon or press key F8 the field for parameter doesn't dissapier and the command write is not executed.
    What do I do wrong?
    Could anyone suggest me a solution? How can I executed the code after using this function?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Arek.

    Hi arkadiusz,
    1. simple
    2.
    <b>start-of-selection.</b>
    f_name = p_file.
    write:/ f_name.

  • How can I execute external application?

    Hi friends I want printing my barcodes a laser printer (Kyocera) it isn't a barcode printer. So I think (and I look kyocera web page my model doesn't support barcode printing in sap) print my barcodes using an external system. Before SAP we are using JollyPrint application for printing barcodes. It is using an Excel file.
    I can create a excel file for this application. I must execute this (JollyPrint-it is a label application) application when I press a button. How can I execute this application?
    Thanks
    Mehmet
    P.S. I have been writing this message with details may be somebody can give me a simple way for this

    Well, I can suggest you following steps. May be it works for you .
    -Create an external OS command in SM69
    -Test OS command in SM49 ( <u><i>about OS command if you search in SDN you’ll get lot of material</i></u> )
    -Create a Script at your OS level, I’m assuming you might have some UNIX flavor or Sun solaria’s.
    -Create a Shell script , which execute the printer job from OS .
    -Shell script will have parameters . ( e.g. printer name, destination etc )
    -set the path of shell script directory in SM69 ( the command you just created )
    -Execute shell script using your ABAP program ( use FM "SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE" )
    In the ABAP  program you can pass the parameters and execute the command from ABAP as a result your job will start printing on the required destination. Moreover, you can also capture the spool at OS level .
    FYI
    For UNIX script, if you search in www.google.com ( UNIX forums) . you’ll get shell script .
    Hope this’ll give you idea!!
    <b>P.S award the points.</b>
    Good luck
    Thanks

    Hi dimath,
    1. sorry, now this will work.
       (this will not even open the dos window)
      (it will get opened only for a fraction of seconds, and then get closed automatically)
      the file will get deleted.
    2.
    command = CMD
    parameter = /C DEL D:\AA.TXT
    (note /C is important)
