output as input

02-22-2003, 02:34 PM

Is there a way to read output from a currently running program as input to another program in C?
If so, please offer some information on this.

Is the two programs are independant, you can use the pipe |
ex:

Code:

prog1 | prog2

In which case, the output of the program 'prog1' will be sent (piped) to the program 'prog2'
