spawn under windows

Hello,

To launch a new process under windows I use the spawn command spawnvp

spawnvp(_P_NOWA IT, cmd, ppTab);
with ppTab containing [ /C, myprog.bat ]

myprog.bat does produce output.

If I launch this from within DevStudio 6.0 I see the outbut in the window

If I launh it as a stand-alone program, the cmd window that opens show
nothing ...

Does anybody have any idea about how to solve this ?

Thank you

If anayone is interessed, I solved this by using _P_DETACH instead of
_P_NOWAIT.

I wanted to write some code purely on Linux, but unfortunately the document scanner drivers are non-existent for the high-end commercial document scanners. So, I had to port my Linux PHP project to Windows PHP (WAMP). There, I found a scanning tool (Kodak Image Scan - imgscan.ocx) that I can put on a VB form, tell it to scan some documents into a TIF file, and then shut down. I can run this VB app at command line just fine, but when I...

Hello! How to write portable (win32, unix) script that launches another program and continues its execution? I've looked at spawn*() but it doesn't look in PATH dirs on windows so it's totally unusable when you don't know where exactly program is. I've looked at fork() way but there's no fork for windows.

I want to spawn a child process based on an external executable that I have the path for. I then want to wait on that executable, and capture it's output. In the os module, fork is only supported on unix, but spawn is only supported on windows. The os.system call is implemented by calling the C system call, which is of course inefficient and has portability gotchas because it calls the underlying system shell (sh for unix, cmd for...

There is a good cross-platform solution, in fact. It's Twisted's spawnProcess API, which works on POSIX and Windows, supports supports sending and receiving, and doesn't have deadlock issues since it's event-driven. Jean-Paul

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,...
