When creating IDL_IDLBridge object, I get the following error message:
% Unable to start IDL_IDLBRIDGE slave process.
I am using IDL8 and Windows 64 bits
{ x86_64 Win32 Windows Microsoft Windows 8.0 Jun 17 2010
64 64}
Same code shows no error under IDL7.1 and Windows 32 bits.
What happens ?

FILE_EXPAND_PATH converts relative paths to absolute paths:

I answer by myself :
The statement in error was "s = idl_idlbridge(OUTPUT='toto.log')". The
cause of the error likely was that the output path must be fully
expanded and must point to a path with proper access rights, whatever
the current directory of the calling program is.
Same behavior under IDL 7.1.
Therefore, another question will follow: what is the way to provide
relative paths to idl_idlbridge ?
alx.
