"close" command in pyeviews

[hasan1]

I am unable to pass the "close" command from pyeviews to Eviews. Bunch of other commands work smoothly.


import pyeviews as evp
eviewsapp = evp.GetEViewsApp(version='EViews.Manager.11', instance='new',showwindow=True)

evp.PutPythonAsWF(varlist, app=eviewsapp) #this works

evp.Run('run program.prg', app=eviewsapp) #this works

evp.Run('close program.prg', app=eviewsapp) #this does not work

evp.Run('close @prg', app=eviewsapp) #this does not work

evp.Run('wfsave(2) Model', app=eviewsapp) #this works

I used a small test program like this one:

Code: Select all

wfcreate a 1991 2000
series x = rnd
series y = rnd


Then did the following in python using pyeviews:

Code: Select all

Python 3.6.5 (v3.6.5:f59c0932b4, Mar 28 2018, 16:07:46) [MSC v.1900 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import pyeviews as evp
>>> eviewsapp = evp.GetEViewsApp(version='EViews.Manager.11', instance='new', showwindow=True)
>>> evp.Run('run test.prg', app=eviewsapp)
>>> evp.Run('close test.prg', app=eviewsapp)

And the test program window closed just fine in my EViews 11.

Can you try this on your setup to see if it works?

Also, make sure you have the latest EViews 11 patch installed.
