Dear All, When using MapWinGeoProc.Hydrology like: MapWinGeoProc.Hydrology.D8(basinfill, basinflowdir, basinslope, 1, False,CallbackObject) every time a windows shell pops up (where the function call is written). Is it possible to suppress this popping up?

Dear All,
When using MapWinGeoProc.Hydrology like:
MapWinGeoProc.Hydrology.D8(basinfill, basinflowdir, basinslope, 1, False,CallbackObject)
every time a windows shell pops up (where the function call is written).
Is it possible to suppress this popping up?

This popup is because it calls a separate exe (from TauDEM). It should be minimized.
Are you using the latest version of MapWindow (RC3: v4.8.4)?

I updated to the newest version but still the command window always appears.
Maybe I have to call the executables by my own?

Are the command window visible or do they start minimized?

They should be minimized.

It seems that they are minimised but still it appears in the taskbar, which gives a flickering effect. Is it possible to run the executables in background without any command window (like it was before with old taudem library) ?

For me it would better to call the executables with the
AppWinStyle.Hide
option.

I originally made the shell window hidden. However, I have known the Taudem program to hang, and if the window is hidden you can't easily kill it, or open it to see what is happening, so I changed it to minimise.

It would be nice to have an optional argument to handle the appearance .
Would that be possible?

It would be possible: which functions would you need the extra parameter for?

But I am still concerned if this is appropriate. For example, if TauDEM runs out of memory when running multi-threaded, then it does not terminate: I guess some of the threads get left hanging. If you run TauDEM in a hidden window it is difficult to do anything - you would probably have to use the task manager to kill MapWindow. If you run TauDEM in a minimised window, as now, you can if necessary open it, see the name of the output log file, and open that to see what is happening. You can also kill the TauDEM function by killing the window.

For me it would be good to have this option for all the functions given in
MapWinGeoProc.Hydrology. Since I run Taudem only single threaded, I guess
I will not have memory problems.
