sendIDLCommand()

The sendIDLCommand() method asynchronously sends an IDL command to the ION Server for execution. The IDL command is posted to the server for execution and the function immediately returns. Notification of the commands completion is performed via the IONCommandDoneListener interface.

Syntax

public void sendIDLCommand(String sCommand)

Arguments

sCommand

The IDL Command that is to be executed on the IDL server. The use of the "$" IDL command (to open a shell or command window) and the line continuation character ($) are prohibited (for security reasons, and because they can hang the server).
