Thread: Invoke External Programs

Hi guys

I'm wondering if it's possible to do something similar to bash scripting from C or C++

Any simple examples would be appreciated.

Thanks so much

This is such a friendly and talented community!

there's a system() function in stdlib.h

Any simple examples would be appreciated.

Code:

#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>

int main()
{
    system("NOTEPAD test.txt");
    
    return 0;
}

A simple code which fires up notepad( in my case creating a new file called test.txt) application. And obviously i am running on winXP platform
