running executable files in Rpi

[ybohan]

Hello,
i have bought an Rpi in order to use it alongside with eHealth platform. When i run the .cpp files with the command
"g++ -lrt -lpthread temperature.cpp arduPi.o eHealth.o -o temperature" it creates an executable file that runs on the LXTerminal with the command "sudo ./temperature" . On the other hand, when i try to run it by double clicking it , it asks me whether to execute it or execute it in terminal. Both options doesn't work at all for me.

What should I do? I simply dont want always to execute them via commandline in terminal

Thank you in advance,
ybohan

I recommend to create a shell script.

Edit a file named, for example, temperature.sh and type these lines:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
sudo ./temperature # Maybe an absolute path to the file temperature would be more suitable

Save the file and then type this command:

Code: Select all

chmod +x temperature.sh

You can read a little tutorial about bash scripting here:

I did this but when I double-click it,it asks me to execute it or execute it in terminal and in both options it does nothing.
In option execute in terminal it seems that something is loading but nothing.

I did so,

it didn't have any segmentations. It runs normally.

Is there any other solution i could try?

Try this :

It's defnitely not intuitive when you come from a Windows background , any program you double-click starts in a window there ( but many console tools
close it after complaining about missing parameters).

What kind of interface/output does this program supply? If it is text based, it must be run from inside a terminal. If it has some kind of X-interface (gtk+, QT, tk whatever), it can be run without a terminal. In your case its has to be run as root and that's a special case. Desktop programs running as root should be started with gksudo.

To start it with a double click from the desktop, you have to create a desktop file. Ghans already supplied a link. You may also look into other desktop files in /usr/share/applications.

[ybohan]

It is a binary executable file that is created from the following command:

g++ -lpthread -lrt program.cpp first.o second.o -o program

and i run the executable called "program" with the following command in terminal
sudo ./program

I want this to execute it by a desktop shortcut so there is no need to open always the terminal but to be opened and run by this shortcut.
The .desktop file that was suggested is ok but is says that my file is binary and it opens as text.

This is what i need to do and thanks for your help in advance

[ybohan]

I finally found the solution
I wrote

Exec=lxterminal --command sudo /home/pi/Desktop/program

Thank you for your help

Hello ybohan !!
I'm pavan. I just read your post running executable files in Rpi. I too use the e-health kit with Rpi.
I am working on uploading the values of temperature from the kit to cloud with Ethernet connection. But I am not successful in doing so.
I am using arduPi library with modified code for e-health kit with Ethernet. Then I encountered errors in compiling.
modifying the wifi
So I decided using wifi for this. Can you help me how to modifythe code with wifi to get the accessible to local server.
