How to Run External Application From WinCC OA

[chandra]

Hello Everyone


I have a one installed application in my C folder(C:\\W8R1.5\\W8R1.5.exe) I want to open this application from WinCC OA by clicking on a button?

You can use WinCC OA API system for this case.

Code: Select all

string output;
string errorOutput;
int errCode = system("C:\\W8R1.5\\W8R1.5.exe", output, errorOutput);
if (errCode == -1) {
  DebugTN("Failure");
} else {
  DebugTN("Succeeded", output, errorOutput);
}

Further details are explain in the help. Search for "system*".

With regards
