    Question How to use .bat file to deal with multiple command line parameters?

    I just want to run a program in VC 6.0 E.Version, and there are many txt files to be read while the program running. My classmate told me that I should use a bat file to pass every paramenter to the program.

    I, now, show a list of part of parameters.

    curve_editor -input spline8_01_bezier.txt -output_bezier output8_01_bezier.txt
    curve_editor -input spline8_01_bezier.txt -output_bspline output8_01_bspline.txt
    curve_editor -input spline8_02_bspline.txt -output_bezier output8_02_bezier.txt
    curve_editor -input spline8_02_bspline.txt -output_bspline output8_02_bspline.txt

    I am very poor in C++ as well as VC6.0, so I ask somebody for help.

    PS: I can use VC to add only one parameter with Menu Project -> settings ...................
    Thanks in advance.

    A bat file seems fine.
    But you don't need Visual Studio to run it.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    If you just want to always run all of those commands in sequence, open Notepad, paste the commands exactly as you have them into it, save it as a .bat file (by choosing All Files instead of Text Files), and you're done.
