TCL script with http under Hypermesh

Altair Forum User

Hi,

I have a simple script :

 package require http;
 set myurl 'http://mysite/file.txt';

 proc getPage { url } {
    set token [::http::geturl $url]
    set data [::http::data $token]
    ::http::cleanup $token
    return $data
 }

 set file [ getPage $myurl ]
 puts '$file'

With TCL 8.5 under Windows 7, I can run this script without problem.

But when I try to run under Hypermesh session (via : source ....) I got error message :

 

========================================

Main console display active (Tcl8.5.9 / Tk8.5.9)

(hw13) 1 % source C:/Users/MYNAME/test.tcl

couldn't open socket: invalid argument

========================================

 

I don't know why this script does not work under Hypermesh.

 

Any idea for help ?

 

Thanks,

 

UPDATE: it works well when I try command line within cmd window:

 'C:\Program Files\Altair\13.0\hw\tcl\tcl8.5.9\win64\bin\tclsh85.exe' test.tcl

Really? I have removed HM12 some month ago.

I'm waiting for release 14 now.

I tried it both in 12 and 13 and neither of them works for me... same error in 12.

Also tried it with adminstator rights... no success. But I still think its some permisson error....

 

Best regards,

WORKAROUND: the same task is written by Perl. From TCL, use 'exec ...'.

It is not error message. It is headlines of tkconsole

But how to remove it?? I can't open the Countours Tab to view the results. I am having this same issue

We've had luck with the Windows 'start' command to load Word files and URLs from within the HyperMesh TCL environment.  If you are still facing the issue, you can try something similar to:

exec cmd /c start "https://altair.com"

 

Hopefully letting Windows handle opening the page will work better.
