_execute with batch files

edited November -1 in Sahi - Open Source
I am using a batch file to reset my test data back to its initial state.
This is file resetDataThinning.bat:

C:\\Progra~1\\Java\\jdk1.6.0_04\\bin\\javac ClearDatabase.java
C:\\Progra~1\\Java\\jdk1.6.0_04\\bin\\java -cp .;C:\\Progra~1\\sahi\\lib\\jtds\\jtds-1.2.2.jar ClearDatabase 5
I then have a script set up with the following 
_execute("resetDataThinning.bat");
If I run the batch file as a standalone batch file the values are reset successfully.

If I then run the sahi script from the same location as the batch file, nothing happens.

Any suggsestions?

Thank you
Donna

    It looks like the _execute() method wants two parameters.

    Here's the _excute() code:

    Sahi.prototype._execute = function (command, sync) {
    var is_sync = sync ? "true" : "false";
    var status = this._callServer("CommandInvoker_execute", "command=" + encodeURIComponent(command) + "&sync=" + is_sync);
    if ("success" != status) {
    throw new Error("Execute Command Failed!");
    }
    }

    Ya..it takes two parameters:
    here is the example from list of sahi API:

    Syntax:
    _execute(command, isSynchronous)

    The parameters are:

    command: command to be executed
    isSynchronous: true or false.
    Set this to true if you want the script to wait till the process returns. Setting this to false will execute the command in a thread and continue.
    Example:
    _execute("loadFromDB.bat");

    So, as per the example, the second parameter is optional...
    But do give it a try using the second parameter...

    I have changed my script to be
    _execute("resetDataThinning.bat", "true");
    And the error message I get is:
    _execute("resetDataThinning.bat", "true"); Error: Execute Command Failed!
    No trace available

    I have resolved my problems, and enclosed my solution below:

    I script my batch files into two.

    Compile.bat 
    cd C:\\Users\\MooresD\\SENTRAWEB\\Latest_Sources\\SentraWebSolution\\SentraResourcesForUnitTesting\\SahiTests\\
C:\\Progra~1\\Java\\jdk1.6.0_04\\bin\\javac ClearDatabase.java
C:\\Progra~1\\Java\\jdk1.6.0_04\\bin\\java -cp .;C:\\Progra~1\\sahi\\lib\\jtds\\jtds-1.2.2.jar ClearDatabase 5
    Run.bat 
    cd C:\\Users\\MooresD\\SENTRAWEB\\Latest_Sources\\SentraWebSolution\\SentraResourcesForUnitTesting\\SahiTests\\
C:\\Progra~1\\Java\\jdk1.6.0_04\\bin\\java -cp .;C:\\Progra~1\\sahi\\lib\\jtds\\jtds-1.2.2.jar ClearDatabase 5
    And my script looked like 
    _execute("C:\\Users\\MooresD\\SENTRAWEB\\Latest_Sources\\SentraWebSolution\\SentraResourcesForUnitTesting\\SahiTests\\resetDataThinning_compile.bat", "true");
_execute("C:\\Users\\MooresD\\SENTRAWEB\\Latest_Sources\\SentraWebSolution\\SentraResourcesForUnitTesting\\SahiTests\\resetDataThinning_run.bat", "true");
    This does the job for me, but if anyone knows of any neater solutions then I am more than willing to give them ago... or even explain why this solution works, but my original posting didnt work.

    Cheers
