As a totally wxpython newbie, I’ve unsuccessfully tried to execute this example:
#!/usr/bin/env python # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- import wx if __name__ == '__main__': app = wx.App(False) pid = wx.Execute('echo blabla', wx.EXEC_ASYNC) print(pid) It returns pid = 0, i.e., the command could not be executed. I am using Python 3.7.5 with wxPython 4.1.0 on Windows 10. What am I missing?
Thanks in advance.
Running your example result in an error for me:
Execution of command 'echo blabla' failed (error 2: the system cannot find the file specified.)
Adding cmd /c to the start of the command string results in the following output:
11412 blabla The full code is:
#!/usr/bin/env python # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- import wx if __name__ == '__main__': app = wx.App(False) pid = wx.Execute('cmd /c echo blabla', wx.EXEC_ASYNC) print(pid)
