[Solved] Not able to quote perl function in sprintf() !
The required form of command is as
Code:
perl /product/editique/RFR/preproc/scripts/ExprEval.pl -P 'EGAL_CHAINE ("          ","")' -K /varsoft/editique/RFR/preproc/logs/D.RFR.PR.PCAC9.PCPA.00.54.20110920.Evaluate_Expression.log

What's wrong with this code (it is not quoting the function, I have checked up the logs):
Code:
                    cmd_perl=sprintf("perl %s -P '%s' -K %s",ScriptPerl,Final_Expr,FicLog);

                    # Debug
                    mess=sprintf("RTF et condition non vides => Appel au perl : '%s'",cmd_perl);
                    message_debug(mess);
                    message_debug(cmd_perl);

                    #eval_res= !system(cmd_perl);

I got it solved by using escape sequence \47%s\47.
