Hi!
I'm writing a C program which gets from the command line a shell command (such as "ls" ) and I should execute it.
My Q is: how can I send a command to the shell?
I know I have to use one of the above functions, but I don't know how to use them.
Thanks

Hi,
If I write in a c file :
execlp("date","date",NULL);
printf("A\n");
And then run through the terminal would "A" be printed ?
I understood that execlp will exit the program after it finished so the next lines of code won`t be executed afterwards.. Is that true ? (1 Reply)

gst-md5sum
gst-md5sum-0.8(1) User Commands gst-md5sum-0.8(1)
NAME
gst-md5sum-0.8, gst-md5sum - get an md5sum of a GStreamer pipeline through md5sink
SYNOPSIS
gst-md5sum-0.8 [--verbose] [gst-std-options] [partial-pipeline-description]
gst-md5sum [--verbose] [gst-std-options] [partial-pipeline-description] [--gst-list-mm] [--gst-mm=string] [--print]
DESCRIPTION
gst-md5sum-0.8 generates MD5 checksums of the data generated by a GStreamer pipeline.
In theory, both of the following commands should print out the same checksum:
gst-md5sum-0.8 filesrc location=music.mp3
md5sum music.mp3
If the pipeline contains an md5sink element, gst-md5sum-0.8 queries it for the md5sum at the end of pipeline iteration. If the pipeline
does not contain an md5sink element, gst-md5sum-0.8 automatically connects an md5sink to the right-hand side of the given pipeline.
See gst-launch(1) or the GStreamer documentation for more information on how to create a partial-pipeline-description.
gst-md5sum is a wrapper script that runs the latest installed version of gst-md5sum-X.X. For example, if both gst-md5sum-0.7 and gst-
md5sum-0.8 are installed on your system, gst-md5sum runs gst-md5sum-0.8.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported by gst-md5sum-0.8 and gst-md5sum:
--verbose Output verbose information. You can also use -v to specify this option.
gst-std-options Standard options available for use with most GStreamer applications. See gst-std-options(5) for more information.
The following options are supported by gst-md5sum only:
--gst-list-mm List found major/minor versions. This option displays the versions that are available.
--gst-mm=string Force major/minor version. This option enables you to specify a specific version to run, if you do not want to run the
default version.
--print Print wrapped command line. This option displays the command that will be run, and then runs the command.
OPERANDS
The following operands are supported:
partial-pipelinePartialppipeline description.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Running the Wrapper Script and Displaying the Command Name
example% gst-md5sum --print
/usr/bin/gst-md5sum-0.8
FILES
The following files are used by this application:
/usr/bin/gst-md5sum-0.8 Executable for GNOME help browser
/usr/bin/gst-md5sum Wrapper script that runs the latest installed version of gst-md5sum-X.X
