Hello, I have several questions about executing external programs with TProcess
1. I need to execute the following command : psql -q -f /home/am/src/gfaf/hlemit_d.sql -v D1="'1-apr-06'" -v D2="'1-jun-06'" (it might not be obvious at first sight that there are both " and ' enclosing those dates , because the argument must contain the ' ) . This command works fine when executed from the bash shell. However, it no longer works when executed from my pascal program (with TProcess). Any idea how should i quote the arguments so that they would be properly treated by TProcess? 2. Where is the TProcess documented on the freepascal website? I had found a FCL.pdf some time ago , but I am unable to find that doc on the freepascal website. 3. The code returned by the called program can be got with TProcess.ExitCode , right ? I have a situation in which a program 1 , but TProcess.ExitCode is 0. Therefore it's impossible to detect the failure.
