I've got the ID part done already. I just need to know how, from the local computer, the user can read that file remotely. This would be very simple if the file...

From a C program running from a local system, when it first executes, I would like check its ID against a text file located on a remote FTP site or a website. At that FTP site, there will be a text...

From a C or C++ program, how do I get the date from the Net?

So let's say the date on the local PC may be changed or incorrect, extracting the date from let's say, Google, would give me the...

I tried system ( ) already, but the compiled program hangs, until I press carriage return.

Please show the whole syntax. ...

I'm on Win XP, with cygwin installed.

From the shell, I can run the command c:\cygwin\bin\ls -l > filename

At the shell in cygwin, all those commands run fine, but they hang in the C program.

I used Visual Studio to compile the C program. As far as what the systems commands were, they were any UNIX...

I'm used to UNIX commands such as grep, awk, sed, ls, cat, diff and so forth. I would like to run similar commands in...

I just installed cygwin 1.7 to my Windows PC.

I have a C program that compiles fine using gcc on Solaris 10, x86. This C program contains system calls like:

system ("ls -l > file.txt");

If I type the Windows commands, I still have the same problem.

I think that my syntax for the system command is not...

Hi,

I just installed cygwin on Windows XP. I used Visual Studio to compile a test

No, a GUI interface.

So, for example:

The user double clicks on something in Windows, the GUI pops up, allows them to enter in values in this GUI, and then, when they're finished, it calls up a...

I easily installed the gcc compiler on Solaris by running the tar xvf command. All files got uncompressed, and I can then use the compiler because gcc got installed on Solaris.

I tried to do the...

Hi,

I've been writing some C codes using gcc in the UNIX environment and have no experience on the Windows environment. I figure I can still write with gcc in Windows. But I'm not familiar with...

I should explain my problem better by describing what I'm doing:

My platform is on Solaris. I have already written C codes to

I'm in the UNIX environment. I'd like to read a Microsoft Access MDB file, and convert the contents of that file into an ASCII text file. I want to write a C program to do this.

Does anyone know...
