I've run into a snag in a program of mine where part of what I entered in at the start of run-time, instead of the current value within printf() is being printed out.
After failing with fflush() and setbuf(), I tried the following approach
however this has not improved things (even with replacing getchar() with fgetc(stdin) ).
Hi,
Program A: uses pipe()
I am able to read the stdout of PROGAM B (stdout got through system() command) into PROGRAM A using:
* child
-> dup2(fd, STDOUT_FILENO);
-> execl("/path/PROGRAM B", "PROGRAM B", NULL);
* parent
-> char line;
-> read(fd, line, 100);

All,
Ok...so I know I *should* be able to control a process's stdin and stdout from the parent by creating pipes and then dup'ing them in the child. And, this works with all "normal" programs that I've tried. Unfortunately, I want to intercept the stdin/out of the scp application and it seems... (9 Replies)

In my script i have 2 variables which can have value of 0 or 1.
$VERBOSE

I need to implement these cases:
($VERBOSE = 0 && $LOG = 0) => ONLY ERROR output (STDERR to console && STDOUT to /dev/null)
($VERBOSE = 1... (5 Replies)

GETS(3) Linux Programmer's Manual GETS(3)NAME
fgetc, fgets, getc, getchar, gets, ungetc - input of characters and strings
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdio.h>
int fgetc(FILE *stream);
char *fgets(char *s, int size, FILE *stream);
int getc(FILE *stream);
int getchar(void);
char *gets(char *s);
int ungetc(int c, FILE *stream);
DESCRIPTION
fgetc() reads the next character from stream and returns it as an unsigned char cast to an int, or EOF on end of file or error.
getc() is equivalent to fgetc() except that it may be implemented as a macro which evaluates stream more than once.
getchar() is equivalent to getc(stdin).
gets() reads a line from stdin into the buffer pointed to by s until either a terminating newline or EOF, which it replaces with '
