Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi all, i really need a help for run my executeable program and add a file as a paramater to the executeable program. i want to run my executeable program by shell script.


i have space.exe program and want to run it with gr1.adl file as a parameter to that space.exe program.

Is there anybody help me with the shell script?

I run with windows 7 but have instaled cwgyin instaled in my OS.

Is space.exe a windows or *nix program?
space.exe needs executable permission. Then run it like space.exe gr1.adl.

space.exe can be run with windows but i want to try run it in linux by shell..

Then you need to install wine, any windows exe would not run on linux otherwise.

Sea, he has cygwin. The idea of installing WINE inside Windows is fascinating, but probably unnecessary.

It's not really a Linux shell, since you don't have Linux, by the way. I suppose you could run it with ./space.exe when it's in the current directory.

I have tried but the result is like this..

Code:

E:\SEMESTER 6\TA_2\space\source.alt\source.orig>./space.exe
'.' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

E:\SEMESTER 6\TA_2\space\source.alt\source.orig>

Firstly it looks like you are at a windows command prompt. You want to be at the cygwin terminal prompt. Look under start menu for "Cygwin Terminal" shortcut this should be Start->Cygwin->Cygwin Terminal by default.

You should then cd to your space working dirctory and run space.exe like this:

Code:

[westlyarfan@YOURPC ~] cd "/cygdrive/e/SEMESTER 6/TA_2/space/source.alt/source.orig"
[westlyarfan@YOURPC source.orig] ./space.exe  gr1.adl
