J-Link_Creo 5_external_applications

Hello!


Please tell me how I can run external applications from Creo using J-Link (for example, a Windows calculator). I already created a button in the taskbar, now I want to assign it such functionality.

 

Best Regards!

That should be a straight up Java thing:

    Thanks for the answer!


    This I understood how to do, the code works.
    But I need to open a website or application using a button from Creo. For this, I think that the created class object should be in the application session.
    I don’t know how to add it there. If I'm on the right track at all..

     

    Best Regards!

    I think this is two separate task:

     

    1) to open a website pfcWindow.Window.SetURL

     

    2) Creo macros can call external application. From J-Link you can a macros

    pfcSession.BaseSession.RunMacro
    wfcWSession.WSession.ExecuteMacro
