[platform-swt-dev] launching an application containing environment varia

["Timar Laurentia" <laurentia.timar@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

 

I'm trying to launch an application containig an environment variable:

 

comparison_tool=%TS_LOCAL%/xml/xmlcompare1.0/Compare_index.html

The program.launch(comparison); instruction can't work with local variables.

 

The solution is down.

 

        if (fileName == null) SWT.error (SWT.ERROR_NULL_ARGUMENT);
         
         int hHeap = OS.GetProcessHeap ();
         TCHAR buffer = new TCHAR (0, fileName, true);
         int byteCount = buffer.length () * TCHAR.sizeof;
         int lpFile = OS.HeapAlloc (hHeap, OS.HEAP_ZERO_MEMORY, byteCount);
         OS.MoveMemory (lpFile, buffer, byteCount);
         
         SHELLEXECUTEINFO info = new SHELLEXECUTEINFO ();
         info.cbSize = SHELLEXECUTEINFO.sizeof;
         info.lpFile = lpFile;
         info.nShow = OS.SW_SHOW;
 ----->        info.fMask = 0x200; //SEE_MASK_DOENVSUBST  <-----
         
         boolean result = OS.ShellExecuteEx (info);
          
         if (lpFile != 0) OS.HeapFree (hHeap, 0, lpFile);
           
           

adding this line in the launch() method could make it work and make me happy.

 Is this a missing feature ?

 

I wish a great new year 2005!
