Is there any possibility to run a batch file from vector canoe? If so, I need to run a batch file from Canoe which will trigger a python script and start executing it.

yes, you can run batch file using sysExec() and sysExecCmd().

Functions Prototype:

long sysExec(char cmd[], char params[]);
long sysExec(char cmd[], char params[], char directory[]); // form 2
long sysExecCmd(char cmd[], char params[]);
long sysExecCmd(char cmd[], char params[], char directory[]); // form 2

Example 1:

sysExec("C:\\Program Files\\Beyond Compare 3\\BCompare.EXE", Commandline, "C:\\Program Files\\Beyond Compare 3");

Example 2:

char configDir[1024];
getAbsFilePath("", configDir, elcount(configDir)); 
sysExecCmd("dir", "/O:-D", configDir); // show files in configuration directory, newest files first
