Thanks for the response. My situation is that I need to launch TestComplete with different credentials. More specifically:
1. we need to have two batch commands: the first command run TestComplete function with the 1st credential, the 2nd command run TestComplete function with the 2nd credential.
2. The tricky part is that we would like to use the return value from the 1st function in the 2nd function, without storing the value in a file to ensure data safety.
Please let me know if there is a way to do this.
You need PowerShell script for your purpose instead of batch file. PS is more flexible and give you more advantages. Example of the reading output
$pinfo = New-Object System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo
$pinfo.FileName = "nslookup.exe"
$pinfo.Arguments = "google.com", "8.8.8.8"
$pinfo.RedirectStandardOutput = $true
$pinfo.UseShellExecute = $false
$p = New-Object System.Diagnostics.Process
$p.StartInfo = $pinfo
$p.Start() | Out-Null
$p.WaitForExit()
$output = $p.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd()
$output
