Hello,

Have you initialized s ?
dim s as new Shell
s.execute ("java -jar /Users/mw/Desktop/files/vnc/viewer.jar -host=10.0.0.38 -password=xxx -showConnectionDialog=No")
Uh, we can’t tell why you’re getting a nil exception, you posted one single line.
I would guess from what little you’ve posted, that s
is nil and you didn’t set it up.
sorry, of course i initialized it.
this was my code originally
dim s as shell
dim f as FolderItem=GetFolderItem("").Child("vnc")
dim cmd as String
cmd="java -jar "+ f.ShellPath +"/viewer.jar -host="+ip+" -password="+passwd+" -showConnectionDialog=No"
s.Execute (cmd)
it returns nilobjectexception
soooorrry it must be
dim s as new shell
…embarrassing
It happens to the best of us
And you may still have issues beyond this as a SHELL is not TERMINAL.app
It does not run your login or startup scripts
This means that the default paths to things are NOT the same between the two
So while “java …” might work in Terminal it might not in a shell as shell has no clue where to find java etc
you are right Norman, but in my case this works now
…but, while the java app runs, my app does not respond anymore, if i close the java viewer everything works again.
tried every s.mode but no change…
