catch the return value of int

Hi

Is there any way to catch the return value of the main program?

the OS can have a mechanism similar to DOS' "errorlevel", or you
could execute the process (using whatever means your OS provides)
and that should have the ability to capture the return value of
the process when it exits (that's how the debugger does it, BTW).
You need to ask in the newsgroup for your OS (or just RTFM).

Yes, many operating systems can catch that value and test it in a
scripting language. Shell scripting languages in Unix can do it. the
batch language in WinXP can do it.

You might want to tell us more about what you're trying to accomplish,
then we might be able to point you in the right direction.
