Air2 NativeProcess -- launching Python scripts

1

Edit: I gave up on Python and wrote the stdout interface with a C++ Win32 Console .exe file. It works fine. Bleegghh. :expressionless:

Old post:

I’m trying to communicate with a Python script. It is not going well. :frowning:

So, first off, I can’t get the ■■■■■■ thing to launch for the life of me – so I’m focusing on that issue. I can get CERTAIN .exe files to launch, but not all of them. If I bundle putty.exe (lol) in a folder called NativeProcess it works fine, but I can’t launch python.exe from my computer. :frowning:

Check this out:

var file:File = File.applicationDirectory;
if (Capabilities.os.toLowerCase().indexOf("win") > -1)
{
        //file = file.resolvePath("NativeProcess/putty.exe");             //:: This works...
        //file = file.resolvePath("NativeProcess/test.py");             //:: This is what I really want, and it doesn't work...
	//file = file.resolvePath("C:/Windows/notepad.exe"); 		//:: This works  too... 
	file = file.resolvePath("C:/Python31/python.exe");		//:: This does not work :( 
}

log(file.nativePath);

var nativeProcessStartupInfo:NativeProcessStartupInfo = new NativeProcessStartupInfo();
nativeProcessStartupInfo.executable = file;

var process:NativeProcess = new NativeProcess();
process.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.STANDARD_OUTPUT_DATA, onOutputData);
process.start(nativeProcessStartupInfo);
