Otterscript: Usage of Success exit code or EXEC operation - clarifications

[fabio.xodo_3872]

Hi, I tried to find it in the Forum and documentation but without success.

I have an Otterscript in Buildmaster which should perform different code depending on the success or not of an Exec (or PSExec) command.

How can I do it?

IS there any variable containing the exit code of the command, that I can test in an IF THEN ELSE?

Or does an exit code different than the Success exit code raise an exception and thus I need to put it in a TRY/CATH?

Thanks

Hi @fabio-xodo_3872 ,

This is not captured in an output variable, but you can control which exit code means success or failure:

Exec MyProcess.exe
(
    SuccessExitCode: "> 0"
);

Another alternative is to write a PowerShell script that captures the output as a variable, if you need to do logic based on multiple codes.

We could always add support for capturing it as an output variable as well.

hope that helps,
