Hi folks,
I've written a C program that takes input from stdin that I want to run from
a php script. Whenever I want to run the program I give the command
parser.exe < filename.xyz
and it runs the program fine.
However, I want to do the same from inside a php script, no probs I thought,
system("parser.exe < filename.xyz");
but the program that I call receives now input. (ie filename.xyz is not
being fed to the program parser.exe
I figure it must be possible, because if I create a .bat file (run.bat) with
the line:
parser.exe < filename.xyz
in it and then run the batch file from php:
system("run.bat");
then it works fine, but it echo's the batch commands to the page which I
don't want.
Has anyone any ideas? I can't for the life of me figure out how to get php
to run the command
parser.exe < filename.xyz !!!!!!!
For simplicity at the moment, EVERYTHING is in htdocs.
Using win98/apache1.3.20/PHP4
Any help appreciated!!
Ross
