System Commands from Flex/Apollo

Does anyone know if it's possible to run native system
commands from within a Flex/Apollo application?
In Java, I think you can do something like
System.exec("command") - where you can run any command line
application.

I'm attempting to create a function which will run in the background of a Windows OS and will print the current window from a single keystroke. I want to use HookDll to do so, but have been unsuccessful in opening this file and viewing meaningful results.
Any direction for the best approach to this problem is appreciated. However, my curiosity (and frustration) has been aroused over HookDll, so I would like to know how to decompile/recompile this file as well.
I have tried using .Net Reflector, but it returns that HookDll.dll is not a .NET module. I have also used Hex Editor Neo to view the binary file and attempt to make sense of it.
Not a scripting issue.
There are dozens of utilities that can be downloaded that do this.
Consider using Alt-PrtScr which prints the current Window with a single keystroke:

Executing a Operating System command from Stored Procedure ??

I want to execute a Operating System command from a PL/SQL Stored Procedure, can anyone suggest me how can I do this ??
I am on Sun-Solaris with Oracle 8.1.7 database.
Please do email me at [email protected]
Thanks in Advance,

Are you using a webserver? If so, you could make your operating system script into a CGI program, then execute it from pl/sql using utl_http.request.

System command from within PL/SQL on server ?

Hi
I know its a bit weird thought of executing an NT system command from within PL/SQL on server (UNIX).
Has anyone done something (silly me!) like it or knows any work-around to try something like it?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Pravesh

Can you be more specific?
Generally to run system commands you utilize DBMS_PIPE to communicate with a listener on the platform that you're accessing. That listener picks up the pipe request and might either:
1. spawn a process to run the command
2. fork a process to run the command
3. run the command within its own application.
It sounds complex, but if review the DBMS_PIPE documentation and it's not too difficult -- presuming you know a language like C.
I believe there are other features in 8.1.5 and higher versions that enable you to run stored programs or COM objects...

abcd', 'SYS:java.io.FilePermission','<<ALL FILES>>', 'execute');
again
get
can't exec: /tmp/sri/GROUP_ho.sh lacks user privilege
same error;

Process management at the OS level should prevent execution continuing in the calling code until the command has completed (either successfully or with error).
If the low level java code were to spawn child process threads then execution could continue, but I'm guessing the Java function your talking about doesn't do that and just calls the operating system to execute the command and waits for the returning code to come back.

NO, there is NOT. Nor should there be. Why create unstable ineffcient Mickey Mouse systems, glued together by hacking?

How to run system commands from JAVA

Hi Friends,
How to run windows system commands from JAVA
Runtime r=Runtime.getRuntime();
r.exec("dir");
Throwing following Exception
CreateProcess :dir error=2
Thanks in advance
Hamsa

Hi ,
in Windows NT this is not possible, you can use the following :
Runtime r=Runtime.getRuntime();
StringBuffer sbuf = new StringBuffer();
String dir = new String();
java.lang.Process proc = r.exec("cmd /c dir");
InputStream is = proc.getInputStream();
int ch ;
while((ch=is.read() ) != -1)
sbuf.append((char)ch);
is.close();
dir = sbuf.toString();
System.out.println(dir );

How to execute system command from java program

Hi all,
I want to change directory path and then execute bash and other unix commands from a java program. When I execute them separately, it's working. Even in different try-catch block it's working but when I try to incorporate both of them in same try-catch block, I am not able to execute the commands. The change directory command works but it won't show me the effects of the bash and other commands.
Suggestions??

The code I am using is....
try
String str="cd D:\\Test";
Process p=Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c cd
"+str);your str string is already having cd in it but again you ar giving cd as part of this command also please check this,i will suggest you to remove cd from str
Process p1=Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c mkdir
"+str+"\\test_folder");you should say mkdir once you change your path,but here you are saying mkdir first and then cd D:\Test(this is because of str)..please check this
Process p2=Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c bash");
Process p3=Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c echo
himanshu>name.txt");
catch(IOException e)
System.err.println("Error on exec() method");
e.printStackTrace();

This is the code which I tried, but it displays only the title of MS-DOS, something like " Microsoft Corp...etc ". But doesn't take any input, and the subprocess(cmd.exe) hangs.

DataOutputStream dout=new DataOutputStream(p.getOutputStream());
System.out.println("after streams");
String s;
dout.writeChars("type cmddemo2.java");
while((s=din.readLine())!="\n")
System.out.println(s);
dout.writeChars("dir");
String s1;
while((s1=din.readLine())!="\n")
System.out.println(s1);
System.out.println("over");

Try gettting the error input stream as well (getErrorStream()). Maybe you are getting output there.
You might want to try just executing the 'useradd' part, getting the output stream of that process, and then put the parameters of useradd into the outputstream.

Execute batch command from flex builder

When I click the "Run" button in Flex builder 3, I would like to execute a batch file. It seems like in the Run settings, it only likes html and flash files. Other file types open in a flash environment Anyone know of a workaround?

Have a look at External Tools and see if that does what you want.
On the main menu bar in Flex Builder there's an "External Tools" icon, click its arrow and select -> Open External Tools Dialog..
Or from the menu, select "Run" -> "External Tools" -> "Open External Tools Dialog..."
You can add a new configuration there and do all kinds of stuff (like creating docs using ASDoc, etc..)

System Commands from a Single Key Input

I'm attempting to create a function which will run in the background of a Windows OS and will print the current window from a single keystroke. I want to use HookDll to do so, but have been unsuccessful in opening this file and viewing meaningful results.
Any direction for the best approach to this problem is appreciated. However, my curiosity (and frustration) has been aroused over HookDll, so I would like to know how to decompile/recompile this file as well.
I have tried using .Net Reflector, but it returns that HookDll.dll is not a .NET module. I have also used Hex Editor Neo to view the binary file and attempt to make sense of it.
