This function uses the GUI toolkit information and so can't be defined in wxBase. The code only compiled before because the function was erroneously defined in wxCore even though it was declared as WXDLLIMPEXP_BASE. Fix this by declaring it with WXDLLIMPEXP_CORE too. This corrects problems in MSW DLL build. If we need to get a string containing user-readable wxBase version too, we should add another function (as it's not possible to virtualize this one) but such function doesn't seem incredibly useful to have anyhow. git-svn-id: https://svn.wxwidgets.org/svn/wx/wxWidgets/trunk@66493 c3d73ce0-8a6f-49c7-b76d-6d57e0e08775

Executes another program in Unix or Windows.

|
|
In the overloaded versions of this function, if @a flags parameter contains
|
|
@c wxEXEC_ASYNC flag (the default), flow of control immediately returns. If
|
|
it contains @c wxEXEC_SYNC, the current application waits until the other
|
|
program has terminated.
|
|
|
|
In the case of synchronous execution, the return value is the exit code of
|
|
the process (which terminates by the moment the function returns) and will
|
|
be -1 if the process couldn't be started and typically 0 if the process
|
|
terminated successfully. Also, while waiting for the process to terminate,
|
|
wxExecute() will call wxYield(). Because of this, by default this function
|
|
disables all application windows to avoid unexpected reentrancies which
|
|
could result from the users interaction with the program while the child
|
|
process is running. If you are sure that it is safe to not disable the
|
|
program windows, you may pass @c wxEXEC_NODISABLE flag to prevent this
|
|
automatic disabling from happening.
|
|
|
|
For asynchronous execution, however, the return value is the process id and
|
|
zero value indicates that the command could not be executed. As an added
|
|
complication, the return value of -1 in this case indicates that we didn't
|
|
launch a new process, but connected to the running one (this can only
|
|
happen when using DDE under Windows for command execution). In particular,
|
|
in this case only, the calling code will not get the notification about
|
|
process termination.
|
|
|
|
If @a callback isn't @NULL and if execution is asynchronous,
|
|
wxProcess::OnTerminate() will be called when the process finishes.
|
|
Specifying this parameter also allows you to redirect the standard input
|
|
and/or output of the process being launched by calling
|
|
wxProcess::Redirect(). If the child process IO is redirected, under Windows
|
|
the process window is not shown by default (this avoids having to flush an
|
|
unnecessary console for the processes which don't create any windows
|
|
anyhow) but a @c wxEXEC_NOHIDE flag can be used to prevent this from
|
|
happening, i.e. with this flag the child process window will be shown
|
|
normally.
|
|
|
|
Under Unix the flag @c wxEXEC_MAKE_GROUP_LEADER may be used to ensure that
|
|
the new process is a group leader (this will create a new session if
|
|
needed). Calling wxKill() passing wxKILL_CHILDREN will kill this process as
|
|
well as all of its children (except those which have started their own
|
|
session).
|
|
|
|
The @c wxEXEC_NOEVENTS flag prevents processing of any events from taking
|
|
place while the child process is running. It should be only used for very
|
|
short-lived processes as otherwise the application windows risk becoming
|
|
unresponsive from the users point of view. As this flag only makes sense
|
|
with @c wxEXEC_SYNC, @c wxEXEC_BLOCK equal to the sum of both of these
|
|
flags is provided as a convenience.
|
|
|
|
@note Currently wxExecute() can only be used from the main thread, calling
|
|
this function from another thread will result in an assert failure in
|
|
debug build and won't work.

their combination, in wxEXEC_SYNC case.
