wine users - Nov 2009 - call openoffice in linux from wine

I have a program compiled in windows.
I execute it using "wine program.exe" under linux.

program.exe needs to execute openoffice , thats installed on linux machine
,..... how can I achieve this, how can I do it ?

thanks

I will try that as soon I get home

solved

this is the code used in codeblocks and compiled under windows xp:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main()
{
    printf("probando ejecutable");
    printf("llamando a ABIWORD desde wine ...");
    system("/bin/sh -c /usr/bin/abiword");
    return 0;
}

I compiled the program as program.exe

under linux i call that program like: wine program.exe

works perfectly


this code should open ABIWORD

SOLLLLVEDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

original code of program.exe:

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main()
{
    printf("probando ejecutable");
    printf("llamando a ABIWORD desde wine ...");
    system("/bin/sh -c /script.run file.txt");
    return 0;
}



modified code:

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main()
{
    printf("probando ejecutable");
    printf("llamando a ABIWORD desde wine ...");
    system("/bin/sh -c \"/script.run file.txt\"");
    return 0;
}



works perfectly

Following that logic you're doing this:
wine /bin/sh -c /usr/bin/abiword

Not much of a difference. [Rolling Eyes]

perl does not adjust to this problem, because I already have a WINXP compiled
program in C++
