To open an executable (exe) file within the same window in a Flutter application, you can use the Process class from the dart:io library to start the executable. Here's a simple example to demonstrate how you can achieve this:
Add the necessary permissions: Ensure that your Flutter app has the necessary permissions to execute files. You might need to request runtime permissions on Android.
Use the Process class: You can use the Process.start method to start the executable file.
Call the function: You can call this function with the path to your executable file.
This code will attempt to start the executable file at the specified path and handle any errors that occur. Make sure to replace 'path/to/your/executable.exe' with the actual path to your executable file.
