get parameters from external executable

[cygna76 0]

Hello,

i have an external programm which returns me a parameter if closed. but i have no idea how to get this parameter into a variable in my Script.

example:

$val = RunWait("c:\port-test\port.exe SIRIUS 81", "C:\port-test", @SW_MAXIMIZE)

if the programm port.exe terminates i usually get 1 or 0 as a returncode.

now i need this value in a variable in my script.

is it possible to get this value, or should a create a "workaround" ... however ....

i have no idea ... i hope that someone can help me .... PLEASE

greetings from Austria,

$val = RunWait("c:\port-test\port.exe SIRIUS 81", "C:\port-test", @SW_MAXIMIZE)
MsgBox(0,'Exit code',$val)
