[python-win32] Question about os.system

[Wu, Huaxing (STP)]

Thanks for trying out and fix the typo (Outlook loves to capitalize the
first letter)
 
My environment is Windows 2000, and I was running from Eclipse.
To follow your example, I tried to run them from command prompt, and I
got
C:\temp\x>aa.py
in C:\temp\x\aa.py
in C:\temp\x\bb.py
in C:\temp\x\cc.py
executingh cc.py 0
executingh bb.py 0
 
So it works.
 
But when I tried again to run them from eclipse. I got only
in C:\temp\x\aa.py
in C:\temp\x\bb.py
executingh cc.py 0
executingh bb.py 0
 
The "in C:\temp\x\cc.py" never get printed And some of my more
complicated real example shows cc.py never run. Will this be a problem
with Pydev?
Thank you

Try Exec with the file handle

	Works for me in Windows XP, once I fixed your print/Print
confusion.
	What environment are you in?
	
	C:\tmp\x>type aa.py
	import os
	print "in", __file__ 
	sysCode = os.system("bb.py")
	print "executing bb.py ", sysCode
	
	C:\tmp\x>type bb.py
	import os
	print "in", __file__
	sysCode = os.system("cc.py")
	print "executing cc.py ", sysCode
	
	C:\tmp\x>type cc.py
	import os
	print "in", __file__
	
	C:\tmp\x>python aa.py
	in aa.py
	in C:\tmp\x\bb.py
	in C:\tmp\x\cc.py
	executing cc.py  0
	executing bb.py   0
	
	C:\tmp\x>
