how can i execute iwgen command in tpl

Hi
Can anybody know ,how to execute iwgen command through tpl.I.e i have iwgen command to which i am passing dcr and tpl and generated page path ,now instead of executing this command on command prompt,i want to execute it in tpl file.
My iwgen command is
iwgen -t /default/main/PGG/PGG_website/PGG_Website_WA/templatedata/ccmsTest/dataTest/presentation/ccmsTest.tpl -r /default/main/PGG/PGG_website/PGG_Website_WA/templatedata/ccmsTest/dataTest/data/record_name testPage.html

If anybody know solution of this ,please let me know.

Regards,
Dinesh

You can call an external program from inside a TPL from an iw_system tag or from an iw_perl tag, using backticks or the system() Perl function.

You might be interested in looking into another approach if it suits your needs.

iw_ostream allows you to generate multiple pages with in the one template (meaning one perl execution).

inside your new ostream, you would then use the iw_include tag to select another template.

iw_load_dcr allows you to use alternative dcr's aswell!

Hi
I was tried iw_system command but it is doing nothing i.e it ask me location to keep generated page,which i hardcoded as one of parameter in iwgen command.I am sending corresponding code ,please have a check on this and tell me what is wrong with this.
My tpl code is
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<iw_pt name="ccms">
<iw_perl><![CDATA[

iwpt_output('<cf_threecolumnpage sectionid=127 menuid="marine" title="Cummins" >');

]]></iw_perl>
<iw_system command = "iwgen -t /default/main/Career_Development/career_development_WA/templatedata/ccnitcd/homePage/presentation/homePage.tpl -r /default/main/Career_Development/career_development_WA/templatedata/ccnitcd/homePage/data/testccms /default/main/Career_Development/career_development_WA/templatedata/ccnitcd/homePage/presentation/testPage.html" />
</iw_pt>

You might try adding the full path to the iwgen command in the iw_system command attribute.
