return code

[pmakowski]

Hi,

we have a plugin that we run in command line mode

Code: Select all

qcad.exe" -no-gui -allow-multiple-instances -autostart "C:\Program Files\QCAD\/scripts/Tools/VisionOnly.js"

we would like to get a return code in case of success or failure, because we launch that with a dos bat file, we tried this way without success :

Code: Select all

 int = function main() {
    if (testArgument(args, "-h", "-help")) {
        printHelp();
        return 0;
    }
    
    if (args.length < 3) {
        print("No input file given. Try -h for help.");
        return 595;
    }

    var cadFileName = args[args.length - 1];
    if (isNull(cadFileName) || cadFileName.indexOf("-") === 0) {
        print("No input file. Try -h for help.");
        return 2;
    }
return main();

Any clue ?
Thanks

The return code of qcad.exe is the return code of main implemented in C++ which is 0 if there was no error in the script or 1 if there are uncaught exceptions.

A potential workaround might be to exit the application with:

QCoreApplication.exit(returnCode);

Thanks, it is what we need.
