Process (Type of variable)

In french: Processus

The Process type is used to define the characteristics of the remote application that can be started by ExeRemoteRun.

The characteristics of this application can be defined and modified using different WLanguage properties.

Remark: See Declaring a variable for more details on the declaration of this type of variable and the use of WLanguage properties.

Example

AppToStart is Process
AppliALancer.Executable = "myappli.exe".
AppliALancer.Command Line = "/SILENT"
AppliALancer.LoginRun = "DOMAIN\USER"
AppliALancer.PasswordExecute = "one-word password"

ExeRemoteRun(AppToStart, exeReturnValue, "COMPUTER2")
WHILE AppliALancer.ExecutionOngoing
Wait(100)
END

Trace(AppliALancer.ReturnValue)

Properties specific to the description of Process variables

The following properties can be used to handle a process:

Property name	Type used	Effect

Executable	Character string	Path of application to start. This path is local to the computer where the application will be started. The application must be found on the remote computer because ExeRemoteRun does not copy the executable. No UNC path can be used.
ExecutionInProgress	Boolean	True if the remote application is currently run, False otherwise. This property is available in read-only.
CommandLine	Character string	Command line of application to start. The executable name must not be found in this command line.
ExecutionLogin	Character string	Login of user who must start the process. This login can correspond to: a character string whose format is "Domain\User". the AccountLocalSystem constant: In this case, the application will be started with the account of the operating system. If this property corresponds to an empty string, the current user account is used (user account on the current computer).
ExecutionPassword	Character string	Password associated with the user. This property is available in write mode.
ComputerName	Character string	Name of remote computer on which the process will be run. This property is available in read-only.
PID	Integer	Identifier of process. This property is set to -1 if the execution of the remote application is completed.
WorkingDirectory	Character string	Directory for starting the remote application. This path is local to the computer where the application will be started.
ReturnValue	Integer	Return value returned by the remote application. If the remote application is not completed, this property is set to 257. If the remote application was not started, this property is set to 0.
