Hello,
I have a problem with stand-alone applications and passing parameters.
I have made a very simple procedure (test.pro) as an example, which
is:
pro test, A
xyouts, 0.5, 0.5, A
end
If I write "test, 36" in the command line in IDL, a new window is
created with "36" written in the middle of it. Simple and it works.
Now, I made a stand-alone application (test.sav) of this procedure,
following the instructions you give in your web-site, because I would
like to use test.sav from outside of IDL. Therefore, I also made a DOS
Batch file to call this new application with the single line:
"c:\test.sav 36"
The parameter "36" doesn't pass through the routine into the variable
A.
How can I get that fixed?
Thank you in advance :)
Bastienne

Thanks a lot, it works!
I made a DOS batch to run my test.sav and I obtained a wonderfull, big
and blue "23" in my window. That's all I wanted :)
Have a nice day

Dear Bastienne
I am using the following trick.
PRO test
DEVICE,decomposed=0
TEK_COLOR
m=GETENV('VAR')
XYOUTS, 0.5, 0.5, m,color=4,chars=5,/NORM
WAIT,10
END
This must be saved for runtime usage.
And then this is described for linux bash:
a simple shell script named for example test.sh
with execute rights
export VAR=$1
idl -rt='/home/idl/test.sav'
test.sh 23 gives the result you wish to have
I believe in M$ it should work too but I don't remember at the moment
how environment variables were defined. Was it set ?
