Hi,
I have a shell script which takes three arguments, how can I call this
script from within a C++ program.
I am new to C++ programming and not sure how to accomplish this.
I tried using system() call but could make it work, must be doing
something wrong.
Appreciate any help in this regard.
Thanks,
Juggler

You have to consult your compiler/OS programming manual as to how to
invoke shell scripts using the 'system' function. You probably have to
specify what executable is to process your script, like
system("/bin/sh scriptname");
however, this is off-topic here, since C++ does not define how external
commands are executed via 'system' function.

Probably. Using the system() call is the only way to do it with
the standard C++ library.
Appreciate any help in this regard.
I would recommend asking on a platform-specific forum, as several
aspects of how system() works, and the other techniques you could
use to run the shell script, will depend on your operating system.

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

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.
