Where to check the meaning of ExitCode for ExecWait?
For example, ExecWait returns ExitCode = 7. What does that mean? Thanks.

The meaning of the return code depends entirely on the executable you're running. Check the manual for the executable, or ask their developers.

Thanks for your reply. So you meant the exit code is actually returned value of executable?
