Re: [Jython-users] running IE from within jython

[Andre B. <an...@bu...>]

Hi Mark,

This works, but I definitely think there should be something more elegant or
more "Python" ;-) :

================================================
C:\>jython
Jython 2.0 on java1.3.0_01 (JIT: null)
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from java.lang import Runtime
>>> rt=Runtime.getRuntime()
>>> browser="C:/Program Files/Internet Explorer/iexplore.exe"
>>> url="www.jython.org"
>>> cmd="%s %s" % (browser, url)
>>> rt.exec(cmd)
java.lang.Win32Process@407527
>>>
================================================

I would prefer "a la Python":

================================================
ActivePython 2.1, build 210 ActiveState)
based on Python 2.1 (#15, Apr 23 2001, 18:00:35) [MSC 32 bit (Intel)] on
win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import webbrowser
>>> webbrowser.open_new("www.python.com")
================================================

Regards,

Andre
