Hi,
I create a short JMP App to generate graphs. I need to launch this app whithout start the jmp home window (like creating an executable file).
If I use a script (.jsl), I can launch it from a batch file like this :
start "C:\Program Files (x86)\SAS\JMPSW\12\jmp.exe" "C:\Users\sdgf\Desktop\JMP\Premiers essais\try.jsl"
Buy adding "//!" in the scope of the script.
But impossible to do the same thing with a jmp app (.jmpappsource).
How can I do this?
Thank you in advance for your answers.

I think the .jmpapp detail in Peter's response is the important part here.
When you save the JMP application by default you get a .jmpappsource file, which invokes the editor when opened. If you use Save As (Win) or Export (Mac) to save a .jmpapp file, the application will run when opened. I don't think you will need a bat file or jsl wrapper in this case.
Might be a more direct way, but this works. Put the following code into try.jsl. Note the .jmpapp extension.
//!
// above line means just run the program
jmp_app_program = "c:\temp\My Great Program.jmpapp";
open(jmp_app_program);

Thank you, this is working fine. DanSchikore
Working too, but not realy the best solution in my case. PMroz
Another way: add << run
at the end of the code in the .jmpappsource file.
I like @pmroz approach to use the helper jsl code open(application.jmpapp)
This also solves my riddle how to include a jmp application the easiest way in a Jmp Add-In ... without hickups!
<jm:action type="text">open("$ADDIN_HOME(AddIn name)\Application.jmpapp")</jm:action>
Alternatives solutions:
<jm:action type="path">$ADDIN_HOME(AddIn name)\Application.jmpappsource</jm:action>
<< run
at the end of the code)<jm:action type="path">$ADDIN_HOME(AddIn name)\Application.jmpapp</jm:action>
<< run
at the end of the code *)Both alternatives are dangerous, because after every edit of the code the << run
has to be added again manually.
*) without the << run
at the end, even with .jmpapp file type no application is opened;
On the other hand: with the << run
at the end of the code, you will get 2 applications when you open the application directly via the .jmpapp file
