RunSync Method

---

The RunSync method runs a configured external application and returns the exit code when it has been closed.

Syntax

[long] = SiteKiosk.ExternalApps.RunSync(path, timeout)

Parameters

path	String that specifies the path to the application.
timeout	Long value that specifies the timeout period.

Return Value

Returns a Long value containing the exit code.

Remarks

Setting the timeout parameter to -1 means that there is an infinite period of time.

If a time out occurres an exception will be thrown.

External applications can be configured in the SiteKiosk configuration. Use slash instead of backslash in the path string.

Examples

The following example runs an external application and shows an alert window if a time out occurres.

<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript"> window.external.InitScriptInterface(); try { myexitcode = SiteKiosk.ExternalApps.RunSync("c:/myapp.exe", 20); } catch(e) { alert("Time out"); } </SCRIPT>

Applies to

SiteKiosk v5.5 (and later versions).
