Run another application

hello peepz...
i was wondering if it is possible to run another application when the user open another. what i mean is when user open applicationA, it will automatically run applicationB. The reason why i need this is because i want to use applicationB as a database engine to poll data from a device but i cannot combine applicationA and applicationB together in one application because when i run the engine, the program just hang.
so would appreciate it if someone show me how i could do that...
thanx
farah k.

As in
MainClassOfApplicationB.main(someArgumentArray);?^
The question is: is "running" it all you want to do or do you want those parts to actually communicate?

Using java to run another application

How to use java code to execute another program such as MS Word and etc? and how to locate the java running program into the right side windows?
Thanks

It woulds to me like you would like to do some OLE, and have the product open up into your application like it does in C/C++, VB, or J++ applications. If this is the case I would as: do you know how to do this using C/C++? I ask this because the only way I know of to do what you ask for is with a lot of C/C++ code using the OLE interface for the products you would like to incorporate.

Using an Applet to run another application

To anyone that can help.
Simply, can I have an applet that runs an PC application?
More detail:
I am relatively new to the Java Development environment, but so far have put together a reasonable intranet web application that takes user input and writes to an Oracle database. From this information, I have then invoked Microsoft Word and populated a template with information to create a document.
All fine and good, but I am running everything under W2000 so I have server and client all in the one place. I am using Tomcat 4 as my server, the application is written using JSP and my own Beans.
The principle of how the Word link works is: within the JSP information is written to a Bean, which creates a file and then executes a WordAPI using:
cmd = "WordAPI.exe";
try {
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
This is OK with everything on one machine, but I now need to set it up on a server and this will not invoke Word on the client. I thought that if I turned the bean into an applet then it would run at the client end and that would resolve the problem, but it doesn't work. Am I breaking some rules or trying to do the impossible?
Thanks for any help

I think it boils down to a matter of security. An applet generally runs in what is known as a sandbox. Since you're talking about an intranet and you didn't say anything about Netscape browser, I'll assume that you're only interested in IE. In IE, you can start by testing to see if your application will work if you click:
Tools-->Internet Options-->Security-->Trusted sites-->sites
and add the intranet URL to make it a trusted site.
If that doesn't work, you may have to sign the applet and put it in a .cab file. To do this you'll need to use the cabarc command (if you can't find the command on your system, search www.microsoft.com web site for a download). After having signed the applet, you still have to make sure that the client's IE security settings are just right for what you needed to do. For this, you'll have to look at:
Tools-->Internet Options-->Security-->Local intranet-->Custom Levels...
Good Luck!

How to run another application in the project?

Well, the title says it all really. I created a new
application within my existing project but I can't get it to run as
it always runs my main application (which has a little blue sphere
on its icon).
How can I get the other application to test and/or
run?

Managing launch configurations
Launch configurations are used both to run and to debug
applications. Flex Builder provides a default launch configuration
for Flex and ActionScript applications. When you first run or debug
a project, a project-specific launch
configuration is created. You edit the launch configuration
to change the default main application file. You can also
modify the default launch path to run or debug in the
stand-alone Flash Player rather than in a web browser.
Creating or editing a launch configuration
When you create and build a project, it is ready to be run or
debugged. Both running and debugging of the applica-
tions in your project are controlled by a launch
configuration. By default, Flex Builder creates a launch
configuration for each of the application files in your project the
first time you run or debug them. The configurations are based on
the default Flex application configuration, and you can edit them
as necessary.
Launch configurations are managed in the Create, Manage, and
Run Configurations dialog box.

Cannot install Business Contact Manager - trying to run another application

Hello
I am trying to install Business Contact Manager for Outlook 2013, but every time when I run the installation file and the file extraction starts, a window opens trying to install a completely different programme - Wunderlist, which I had on my computer.
I deleted all of the files related to Wunderlist and tried to install BCM again, but the same thing happens over and over again. I took a snapshot of the error message. After every attempt, I find a file of the type ClickOnce Application Deployment Manifest
related to Wunderlist C:/Users/rg/AppData/Local/Microsoft/Windows/TemporaryInternetFiles/Content.IE5/T5VFSWN6/Wunderlist.application
Is this a problem with BCM or Wunderlist? Has anybody had a similar problem? Any suggestions how I can solve this issue?

Hi,
Make sure you downloaded Business Contact Manager from Microsoft, if no, please download Business Contact Manager from this link below:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=36513
I actually haven't seen the same issue before, you may perform a clean boot to install BCM, this will help forbid the interference by other programs:

How can I run another application from my Form

Dear Gurus,
Can anybody tell how can I run a non oracle application from my Forms..
Can it be done thru DDE package..
If yes then how..??
Can it be done like Excel calling thru DDE package???
Thanks in Advance..
Regards
Swati..

Keep in mind that HOST will execute where the runtime is located. This means for Forms 6.x and older, if the application is running as client/server, HOST will correctly execute on the client. If your application (Forms 6.x and newer) is run via a web browser, HOST will execute on the server and not the client machine.
Without knowing exactly which Forms version you are using and where you want the call to be executed it will be difficult to offer suggestions.

Calling another application using object carousel

hi, i'm currently developing several applications in mhp, i have 5 mhp applications, i wrote them each with individual xlets, now, one of its application serves as a main menu for other applications, the main menu should call or run another application in another carousel. so i studied how to use carousels. and here's my code below. the locator and the carousel ID is just an example. pls. help me check if this codes are correct or if there something i need to modify
Locator locator;
int carouselID;
String locStr = "dvb://123.456.789";
ServiceDomain carousel = new ServiceDomain();
try {
locator = new DvbLocator(locStr);
carouselID = 5;
carousel.attach(locator, carouselID);
carousel.getMountPoint().synchronousLoad();
} catch (ServiceXFRException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (InterruptedIOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (MPEGDeliveryException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (InvalidLocatorException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (InvalidFormatException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (ServerDeliveryException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (InvalidPathNameException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (NotEntitledException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}

The code you have will work, but will almost certainly not do what you want. It will load the directory entry for the root directory of the carousel and nothing more - using this approach to load multiple applications from another carousel is hard work and fairly error-prone.
An easier solution is this:
1) Broadcast all your applications as separate apps. They can be in the same carousel or different carousels.
2) If you only want the launcher application to be visible in the application list, set the visibility of the other applications in the AIT to be invisible to users but visible to the application listing and launching API.
3) Use the application listing and launching API (org.dvb.application.*) to launch the sub-applications when you want to. This works via the normal application manager, so it will take care of making sure the carousels are mounted correctly.
The disadvantage of this approach is that sharing information between the launcher app and other apps gets harder, and you will need to use the inter-Xlet communication API to get round this. It will save a lot of trouble with carousel management, however.
There are other approaches (e.g. using DVBClassLoaders), but using separate carousels tends to complicate things. Is there a good reason for doing this, or can you store all of the applications in a single carousel?

, can I throw the app away and download a new one? or will it still not open?
You could, but the error message is indicating that your iPhoto library needs repairing.
Check, if iPhoto will run, if you launch it on a new library. Hold down the alt/option key, while you launch iPhoto. Select to create a new library from the panel that will show. Can you create a new library? If yes, try again to fix the library. Which options have you tried from the Library First Aid panel, when you launched iPhoto with the option and command key held down?
If you have not tried "Rebuild"; do that next. But be sure to make a backup of your iPhoto library, before you try this.

I am unable to access my LR5.7 Catalog of my recent holiday. I am running Windows 7 (64Bit) and recently installed and then uninstalled DxO Optics Pro. The error message says it "cannot be opened because another application already has it opened.Quit the other copy of Lightroom before trying to launch" The problem is, that I can only see one copy of LR5 open and cannot locate the ".lrcat.lock" file for the specific catalog I want to open. I have tried re-booting my computer, but this did not work.

Thanks Geoff. I was finally able to locate the ".lrcat.lock" file relevant to the catalog I want to open. Once I deleted it, LR5 was able to access my images. Problem solved. THANK YOU

Error "Your camera is in use by another application"-no other apps running

I just purchased a brand new iSight. I connected it to my G5 but when I start up iChat and click on the green video camera icon at the top right, I get a new window that just says "your camera is in use by another application". I don't have other applications running. When I click on the preferences button at the bottom of that window I get another new window with some options for microphone and bandwidth limit. The iSight is not even an option for microphone.
I tryed the iSight on a MacBook Pro and a iBook, it works perfect on both so I don't think there is anything wrong with the iSight.
A few months ago I tryed to run a mac compatible logitech camera on the G5 but couldn't get iChat to recognize that camera either. I wonder if did something that is coming back to haunt me.
I downloaded the latest updates for my iChat, tried all the basic stuff like removing the logitech software and restarting the computer...I am running out of ideas...Help, please. How do I figure out which app is "using" the iSight?

Hi Puppymac,
There are two things to try.
1) Try the Combo update
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx1046comboforppc.html
2) Try reinstalling Quicktime.

Protection Error - This application cannot continue because another application with an identical serial number is already running on another computer on your network

I attempted to open Final Cut Express this morning and got the message, "Protection Error - This application cannot continue because another application with an identical serial number is already running on another computer on your network".
I have no other FCE on any computers...this is the only mac running (iMac 2008 model). I used a preference manager app and deleted preferences...didn't work. I uninstalled and reinstalled FCE...didn't work.
This is the first time I have used FCE since installing the Yosemite OS, so I'm thinking perhaps that has something to do with it.
Any ideas?

There have been recent posts appearing about your problem. I'm not sure if anyone has found a solution.
FCE was abandoned by Apple years ago, and they are currently making Operating Systems without regard to how it impacts FCE.

That is what I would try - a fresh install - but your need to use FCS remover (from the same software source as Preference Manager) to make sure you get all traces of your existing installation off the drive prior to doing the installation:
http://www.digitalrebellion.com/fcsremover/
If you use FCS Remover, and reinstall the other problem may be that Apple has apparently removed the Software Upgrade to FCE 4.0.3.
So unless you have a 4.0.3 install disk, or you hadn't upgraded past the version number of the install disk you do have, you legacy projects may be tagged as being created with a later version than you have and not open.
Hope it works out for you.

I created an application on a machine with Labview 6.01, can I run this application on another machine that has labview 5?

In the development center we use Labview 6.01, in the testcenter we use labview 5.
Additionally, in the development center we use a unix version of Labview and in the testcenter a Windows version.

You can Save with Option to save VIs as version 5.
Unless your VIs deal with system files in UNIX or Windows (ie. Registry...)
then you have to develop your VI specificly on that OS, since UNIX and
Windows have different ways to deal with system files. Mostly, LabVIEW is OS
independent. I used to have VIs developed from LabVIEW v.3 on UNIX, I can
still open these files from LV v.4 on Windows. Now I can still work with
these VIs on LV 6 on Windows.
Good luck,
Nam.
