Linking an exe file thru JEditorPane

Hi All,
I would like to link an exe file thru a JEditor Pane...
I have constructed a gui for an application using Swing and want to link a local exe file
thru it ie i would like the exe file to execute when i click on the link provided in the JEditorPane.
How should i go about it?
Thanx...

Are you talking about linking to your EXE in terms of a compiler link or just a communication link so your EXE takes care of the functionality and your java program provides the GUI only ?
I do not know if a compiler link is possible. I've never seen anything that allows you to do it.
If you just want your EXE to provide functionality then it is possible, but would take a fair amount of work. You can open sockets in both the EXE and Java programs and send messages back and forth. The GUI could request work to be done by the EXE and the EXE passes the results back to the GUI for display. An interesting note about this is that the EXE and GUI do not have to reside on the same machine.
Good luck,
Peter

Link external .exe file to director buttons

I want to create a CD menu that has buttons link to differents .exe file (application) When click on the button, the application will run directly on window so I can turn it to full screen.
However I've encountered the problems when try to link external files (exe) into cast. I got this -1 errors. I've checked previous topic and try the 'open()' command that link to the .exe file but it didn't work either. Well, I've just study Director not so long ago, so I'll appriciate your help to archive the right result.
Thank you.

Don't import your exe in the cast. Just put it next to the projector or in a subfolder.
Then give the full path to open().
Example:
open(_movie.path & "filename.exe")

Link local exe file into URL iview

Hi,
I am trying to integrate an VB application ( basically it is a .exe file installed in local path ) through a url iview . The exe will reside on every client machines and the path I have given is like 'file://c:/Program Files/myfolder/test.exe'
But when I access this application , I am getting an error icon in the left bottom of the IE and when I clicked that icon , it is giving an 'Access Denied Error 'message
It might be some IE security settings which we need to do. I am not able to find what it is.
Pls help.
Ramana

I dont know if SAP provides any iview that support this. However you can do it with javascript and shell commands by follow this tutorial.

Accessing KM Document Iview which contain .exe file from Portal logon page.

Dear All,
I was trying to access the KM document ivew(where I uploaded an .exe file in KM and created an ivew for that) in my portal logon page which is customized.
I am calling the ivew through an html command "href".
Now my issue is, while clicking on that link, that exe file is opening with the full portal ivew path name without any extension.
But the actual exe file of same size which is uploaded is getting downloaded and saved with out any extension. I always have to change the name and give .exe extension for that to open properly.
So, can some one suggest me how to open the actual exe file with the extension?
Cheers,
Anu.

Sorry Tom!
Your problem seems to be different, I've no idea.
But we already fixed our problem, I forgot to post. Here's our solution:
The solution was to create a KM Docs iView with anonymous authentication schema pointing to the download file. Then we created an URL iView pointing to this KM Doc with appending the filename AGAIN to the URL (because otherwise the iView ID will appear as filename). In the page a hyperlink now is pointing to the URL iView and after clicking it, the download starts with the correct filename.

"Exe" run thru java

How do i execute an exe file thru a java program.can someone please show me a sample code to do this?

this is what i normally use:
* Exec.java
* Created on October 22, 2001, 1:14 PM
package moss.rt;
import java.lang.*;
import java.io.*;
/** Sends a string to the console for execution if you send a DOS command make sure is in this format:
* <code>cmd /c yourapp.exe</code>
* otherwise just the executable will do
* @author dmoss
* @version 1.0
public class Exec
    /** Sends a command to the console for execution and then returns to the
     * main frame. Does NOT wait for an exit code.
     * @param cmd the command sent to the console

Cannot open exe files?

I think I heard that this was the idea behind the update, but I want to be able to open an exe file when I click on it, how do I do this?
Thanks

The new version I think? 9.3.4?.............................. Yes 9.3.4.
Some one wrote a pdf in Latex and within it there are links to exe files. I guess the actual file must be somewhere I guess I'll go have a look. But the problem still exists. It tells me that I don't have administrative authority or something along those lines.
Thanks

Creating a link on exported exe files

I have 9 separate projects I need to burn to a CD. I have
created an html menu. I am exporting each of the 9 projects as
stand alone exe files, each one automatically opening the next one.
But at any given time I would like the viewer to be able to exit to
the main menu. Should I just put a button linking to the main menu
on every single screen of a single project, to allow the user to
exit to the menu if they want?
FYI, I had initially created the 9 projects as html files,
linking to one another. I posted a message about that earlier. But
I am running into browser issues and don't want to run that risk
with the completed CD. Help! :)

Hello Captiv8r and others,
This thread is pretty interesting. I have been struggling
with creating a project using Captivate 3 that will
reside fully on a CD. I am looking at maybe three workflows
for this, one using exe files, one using swf files and an html page
which serves as a "menu page" (the Captivate Menu builder just does
not have enough options, in terms
of graphic display, buttons, etc.), and the last one (which
is the hardest), using some sort of Flash container, a Flash
loader, and some menu buttons built in Flash, that call up
Captivate created swf files, etc. So far we have not had to track
state. I am trying to develop a training course on MS Excel, and am
using audio and Captivate for screen shots, mouse movements, etc.
After all the BS above, I do have a question. Is there a
reason to publish to an exe file in Captivate? Or what is the
reason(s) to publish a Captivate project to an exe file in the
first place. I have searched around for the answer on this, but
have found no good answer on this. Perhaps those of you more "sage"
Captivate users can provide some insight.
Thanks again for a very helpful forum,

Trouble linking exe files

Yet another dilemma with my CD project. I published the first
project file (of 9 separate projects) as a standalone .exe file
with an autostart file to burn to cd. I set the END to open another
.exe file. When I view output, it fails to open the second .exe
file. It opens a browser window and says it can't find the .exe
file. All project file names are only 8 characters, so that isn't
an issue. But it shouldn't try to open the .exe file in a browser
window, should it? Is there any reason I can't publish all the 9
projects as standalone .exe files and link them to one
another?

Hi again
Here's the way I would think it would work.
You have a menu and perhaps ten movies. They are all in .EXE
format. The menu.exe would run via autorun.inf as long as nothing
has impeded it. So you have a Menu.EXE running. Your user clicks a
movie link and POOF! The selected movie.EXE plays. But here's the
trick. The movie opens in a new instance of the Flash player. The
Menu.exe is still running. It's simply covered by the new movie. If
the user closes the new movie, the Menu.exe is uncovered. This
allows him/her to open other movies from the menu.
Sorry, no way I'm aware of to speed things along. For one
thing, accessing anything off a CD will be slower to react than off
a hard drive. For another, maybe the movie is simply very large and
would take an inordinate amount of time to open even on a fast hard
drive. Hard to say.
Hope this helps a smidge... Rick

Captivate 4 link between 2 .exe files

I work with adobe captivate 4 and i developped a lot of presentations that i want to link i published each of them in the .exe format but the thing is that when i passes from one .exe file to another one, there is a delay and we can see the first .exe file closing and the second one opening. I wish to have a continious presentation.

Hi there
Sorry, but there isn't a way past that to my knowledge. The reason is because the exe has to close and the new one has to load up and open. You are wanting a behavior similar to what you have with SWF playing in the browser. In the browser setup, it appears pretty seamless because the next SWF simply loads into the browser client area and plays.
Perhaps consider submitting a Wish Form to Adobe and who knows, maybe they will come up with some clever workaround in a future release.
Cheers... Rick

Linking swfs or exe files?

I need help with a Flash AS3 project that includes about 30 videos. I needed to break it in smaller pieces because it is a large file (over 300 mb) and every time I wanted to publish the entire project flash crashed.
Here is my test:
I have two exe files that should link back and forth.
Intro_YIM.exe, which has a button that links to Videos_FrontPage_YIM.exe
Here is my code, which is in Intro (button name= nav_4).
nav_4.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoVideoFront);
function gotoVideoFront(event:MouseEvent):void {
var url:String = "Videos_FrontPage_YIM.exe";
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
try {
    navigateToURL(request, '_self');
} catch (e:Error) {
    trace("Error occurred!");
Problem:
The link seems to work, but there is a message that says save or run. When I click run, there is another message that says the file can't be open.
Questions:
1. Is there a better way to handle links using executable files using Flash CS5 and AS3?
2. If swfs were used, how can I have a main page displaying all other swfs as they are linked?

Kglad:
Yes, initially I thought that exe files was the way to go. However, I've been searching for options and found that by using the class Loader, I can load swfs files instead of exe files.
Here is what seems to work with only swf file:
var my_loader:Loader = new Loader();
nav_4.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, startLoading);
function startLoading(e:MouseEvent):void {
    my_loader.load(new URLRequest("Videos_FrontPage_YIM.swf"));
    addChild(my_loader);
Problem: I have a interface, which loads all other files by way of buttons. For instance, nav_4 button loads the file Videos_FrontPage.swf. When this movie loaded, the interface was also gone.
How can I keep the same interface and still be able to load all other movies?
Your help is appreciated.

EXE files no longer link

Hi,
Were are creating a director file and have used buttons with
the "jump to movie behaviour" in order to link between several
different movies and, although though it works with the .dir files,
when we publish the movie to .exe files, the links no longer work.
does anyone know how we can rectify this please?

Hi,
Mike has answered the question but just to expand somewhat.
As Mike said, make your EXE from the start movie and then all
the remaining ones
can be either DIR, DXR or DCR. You'd typically go with DXR
(protected) for an
executable. You can go with DCR (Shockwave) if you want to
compress your content.
Generally, you'd create a stub projector. Here's a tutorial
on this:
http://www.fbe.unsw.edu.au/learning/director/publishing/projector.asp
If you wanted to have a single EXE with all your movies, you
can do that but it is
not recommended as from a speed and memory management point
of view, it's not very
good.
Just one correction of Mike's message. - Once you create a
EXE, it embeds that
movie into the projector. You can rename the EXE to whatever
you like but the
original movie is still locked in there with its original
name. So, you can link to
that original movie inside the EXE without the need to have
the DIR/DXR/DCR
version.
For example say you have:
opening.dir
movie1.dir
movie2.dir
and say they link to each other.
You could create the following for your final delivery and
put them in a new
location:
start.exe
movie1.dxr
movie2.dxr
start.exe is made from opening and the other 2 movies have
been protected.
If you have a behavior inside 'opening' that links to
'movie1', the start.exe will
jump to that movie through the projector. So, you may not
even notice there was a
change. Same thing would happen if you now jumped to
'movie2'. If you now jump back
to 'opening', it will still work even though you don't have
that file. It's because
it can be found inside the EXE.
