VUEEXEC(1X)

NAME

vueexec — A "wrapper" program for command lines to control when the command exits.

SYNOPSIS

vueexec <open_option> <command_line>

DESCRIPTION

Vueexec is used by HP-VUE when executing terminal-based actions.  Its’ purpose is to keep the terminal window open after the command terminates in the following circumstances:

- If the action is of type PERM-TERMINAL. 

- If the action is of type TERMINAL and the command "quickly" exits, which indicates that an error occurred. 

The "open_option" arguments are:

1. "-1" - Keep the window open when "command_line" terminates.  2. "0" - Unmap the terminal window after "command_line" terminates. 3. "n" - Keep the terminal window mapped if "command_line" terminates within "n" seconds of starting.  The default value is "3" seconds.  To change the default, set the component’s "waitTime" or "WaitTime" resource.  For example, to change the HP-VUE File Manager to wait "5" seconds, set the following resource: "Vuefile*waitTime: 5". Vueexec does not have any resources.

Vueexec’s default path is "/usr/vue/bin".  To change this location, set the component’s "vueexecPath" or "VueexecPath" resource.  For example, to change the HP-VUE File Manager’s vueexec path to "/usr/local/bin", set the following resource: "Vuefile*vueexecPath: /usr/local/bin".
