Hi i am trying to open a pdf from a mobile application. I am using the following code. In windows it works fine but on Android nothing happens when i run this. No error no nothing. Anyone knows why?

Code

&AtClient
Procedure openFileTest(Command)
   SysInfo = New SystemInfo;
   if Find(SysInfo.PlatformType,"Windows") = 0 then
      path="/sdcard/Download";
   else
      path="c:\temp";
   endif;   
   
   BeginRunningApplication(New NotifyDescription("Attachable_EmptyHandler", ThisForm),"test.pdf",path);
   
   
   
EndProcedure


&AtClient

Procedure Attachable_EmptyHandler(CodeReturn, AdditionalParameters) Export

   Return;

EndProcedure

Hello Constantinos,

you are specifying an incorrect second parameter to the BeginRunningApplication procedure.

Here we need to pass the full name of the file that we want to open, including the path to it. The third parameter - Path - is optional and can be omitted.

Here's an example of how a call to this procedure might look like in Android:

Code
&AtClient Procedure Command1(Command) BeginRunningApplication(New NotifyDescription("Attachable_EmptyHandler", ThisForm),"file:///storage/sdcard1/Downloads/test.pdf"); EndProcedure
