Hi all,

Is it possible to embed any external application(other than prottolkit dll) into pro toolkit synchronous or asynchronous application?

If yes then please let me know how can we do it?

TIA

Hi,

Export the functions from the external dll, and you can call those functions inside the toolkit application.

If you want to call the applications use,

system("notepad.exe"); - This will call the command through console.

Hi,

I'm not sure if I understand ur question correct.

You can also use the syncronous or asyncronous J-Link possibilities (Java) oder WebLink (JavaScript). In both u can use C-dll's to have the full capacity of Toolkit features.

or

like Joseph says u can write a Server Application in the dll and connect with another application on the running dll, or start files directly through standard C - Code.
