Send a command from Perl to Skill

Khurana

Hi,

I'd to know how to pass a command from Perl to Skill...say I want to pass "Hello from Perl" string to Skill, then how can I do that?  I know that I need to invoke perl.exe and the perl file (.pl) using ipcSkillProcess() wherein I provide the exe and path to the perl file as noted below, I still am not sure how Skill will read the info from the Perl file - any ideas?

cid = ipcSkillProcess("D:/perl/per.exe d:/script/myperl.pl"

Here's a line from myperl.pl:
print "Hello from Perl\n";

Thanks,
Varun

  • Andrew,

    Thanks a lot for your time and help. 

    Yes, the two problems you identified were indeed there in my code, however I couldn't get it work even after fixing them.  So, I used ipcBeginProcess() and ipcWriteProcess() as supposed to ipcSkillProces() and was able to get the thing to work.

    Once again, appreciate the help.

    Regards,
