I'm creating a routine (not in a browser) to move multiple files on a daily basis to a backup directory. It can be done easily by call shell functions like 'mv file* newdir'. I can't find any reference in the Java tutorial about accessing or using the shell or system other than standard i/o. Does anyone have a clue on how to pass a command to the shell to execute a program? My other option is to write a shell script that calls a few...

Hi. I'm writing a command shell that reads commands from standard input. At this point I have the command in a std::string. Now I want to execute this command in the shell. From the Borland newsgroups I learned that there is a function in stdlib.h called system. int system(const char *command); First question, is the system command ANSI compliant. Because I include <cstdlib> and write std::system(command.c_str()); it looks like an...

For array.array "B" means unsigned char, and such arrays accept to be initialized from (str) strings too, this is quite useful: But it seems such capability isn't shared with the append: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: an integer is required

I'm trying to figure out why Popen captures the stderr of a specific command when it runs through the shell but not without it. IOW: cmd = if 1: # this captures both stdout and stderr as expected pipe = Popen(' '.join(cmd), shell=True, stderr=PIPE, stdout=PIPE) else: # this captures only stdout pipe = Popen(cmd, shell=False, stderr=PIPE, stdout=PIPE) # this prints the empty string if not run through the shell

Hi, It's seems that csh and tcsh acts a bit different when handling special characters in quotes. i.e: if i'll supply my program with the following arguments: -winpath "c:\\temp\\" tcsh will take it as -winpath "c:\temp\" and csh will take it literally (with the double-slashes). Is there a way for me to know what shell is currently running my

I am looking for advice on Python Editors and IDEs I have read other posts and threads on the subject and my two questions at this time are mainly about the IDLE-like F5-run facilities.

Windows and LINUX compatibility is...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
