C :: How Command Line Arguments Work
Aug 17, 2013I want to see how the command line arguments work. However I don't know how to enter this input. show me a method to see if my code works?

View 9 Repliesl need to write a program which writes out its command line arguments in reverse order one per line. The output from the program should look like this:
% a.out Two roads diverged in a yellow wood
wood
yellow
a
in
diverged
roads
Two
I am using visual studio 2010 c++ express for C/C++ programming but is novice here to take command line arguments..i did went to project->properties->debugging and specified there the command line arguments but it didnt work..i think i need to know the format to enter the arguments.

When you write and compile a program, on the right side (the "output" side), you can read this command line arguments:
$ g++ main.cpp -o demo -lm -pthread -lgmpxx -lreadline 2>&1
What is the meaning of the following arguments? -lm [link the math header file, right?]
-pthread
-lgmpxx
-lreadline
Any book (ebook, tutorial, printed book, whatever) where I can find all (absolutely all) these and other possible arguments?
I tried the exercise 5 on page 312 of King's Book C programming A modern approach second edition. Write a program named sum.c that adds up its command line arguments which are assumed to be integers . Running the program by typing :
sum 8 24 62 should produce the following input
Total : 94
Use the atoi function to convert each command line argument from string form to integer form
My solution is :
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
int main(int argc , char *argv[])
{
int i , sum=0;
}

It is running good without problems but I am wondering because it is very small solution with few lines of code.
I am not sure how to enter command line arguments when I run the executable of the file below. I want check an make sure that only two arguments get into the main() before running the rest of the code. I'm using bash on linux.
An example that I have tried to test for 2 arguments in command line -arg1 arg2 > ./a.out This of course does not work
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <errno.h>
[Code].....
I know you go the the debugger and pass them in. I just need to know the syntax. I know &(ProjectDir) goes first because the text file is in the project directory but how do I pass the text file in as well. The file's name is "tester.txt".

#include <stdio.h>
int main( int argc, char *argv[] ) {
printf("Program name %s
", argv[0]);
if( argc == 2 ) {
printf("The argument supplied is %s
", argv[1]);
[code]...
Would you be able to do something similar to this if you have integers or would you need to use the first method then convert it with atoi?
#include <stdio.h>
int main( int argc, int *argv[] ) {
printf("Program name %s
", argv[0]);
if( argc == 2 ) {
[code]...
I have "hello world" set for command line args.
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
printf("%s %s", argv[1],argv[2]);
}
That code produces
w
r
d
Why would it do that.
I'm making a command line program for Maemo but have got a problem reading the args.
main.cpp
Code:
#include <cstdlib>
#include <string>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <sys/param.h>
#include <iostream>
#include "exceptions.h"
using namespace std;
struct settings {
//settings() : force(false), deps(false), repo(false) {}
[Code] ....
exceptions.cpp contains bodies of these functions.
Unfortunately the program doesn't seem to recognize the arguments
Code:
marcin@marcin:~/proj/meeinstall$ ./meeinstall -h
-h
Filename not provided.
Exiting...
How can I fix it?
I stumbled into this forum in frustration as I tried to pass a string with both quotes and spaces into a single variable. I have looked up a couple places online, and even saw an old post here (Handling spaces in command line arguments) However, I still cannot seem to get the following string (in between the ---'s) to stay in one command line argument.
---copy c:ToolsDomainjoinAdminGroup.cmd C:"UsersAdministratorAppDataRoamingMicrosoft WindowsStart Menu"Programsstartup---
In the following program, I have gotten it to work with IO redirection (not shown in this particular code), and have made some minor adjustments to get it to work with file processing. The only thing I have to do now is get it to work with command line arguments, and am slightly lost (and I have looked into it).
I basically just need to take a text file from a certain directory and send it to my program. Would need two files, an input and output file.
main.c
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include "LAB_6B_7B.h"

my professor just increased the problem by saying the time value should be passed as command line arguments can anybdy tell the code to parse time as command line arguments
View 10 Replies View RelatedActually the below program is for Dispersal Algorithm called Rabin-IDA; this algorithm divided the data into N pieces and then recombine it from M pieces (such that M<N).
Thus, the below program needs command line arguments,which entering by Project properties/Debugging. this argument is file name, where the program performing spitted the file into N files, and then recombine it from M divided files, and put it on another file which should also passing its name as argument .
Now my question is, How can i make this program enter the file name by keyboard??(i mean enter the files name by user from screen not as command line arguments)
The below code is just the main function of program, and the whole of it in this link (http://www.juancamilocorena.com/home/projects) Information Dispersal Algorithms Rabin-IDA

i wrote the c program for command line arguments,but i don't know how execute c program through command prompt
i did like this
d: cin>
then how should i proceed for execution
How do i find and output which one is most frequent from a given set of arguments on command line in c ?

/** Add a feature to a (mutable) LV2 feature array. */
static inline void
suil_add_feature(LV2_Feature*** features,
unsigned* n,
const char* uri,
void* data) {
for (unsigned i = 0; i < *n && (*features)[i]; ++i) {
if (!strcmp((*features)[i]->URI, uri)) {
[Code] ....
suil_add_feature is used to add features to an existing array of pointers to type LV2_Feature. Initially, the array gets searched to see if the feature already exists. If it doesn't, the existing array gets increased by one element which then gets initialized to the new LV2_Feature value. Resizing is done using realloc()
I'm having a problem when I build a Debug version. The first 5 times I call suil_add_feature() realloc() ends up calling _realloc_dbg() (in dbgheap.c) and everything works fine. But on the sixth call, realloc() calls _realloc_base() (in realloc.c) which brings everything crashing down. I assume that _realloc_base() is intended for the normal (non-debug heap). So this particular app is somehow linking to both the debug and non-debug runtime modules.
If I was building using the VS IDE I could probably figure this out - but although my compiler is MSVC, my build environment is waf, which I'm a bit unfamiliar with. I'm guessing I need to add some lines to my waf script to let it know that it shuld ignore the non-debug runtime libraries when building a Debug version.
Can I achieve this by adding /NODEFAULTLIB to the linker options or is it more complicated than that?
In class, we have learned how to set up the main method so we can convert command line arguments to integers and utilize them. Here is an example of a method we learned to store command line arguments as integers in an array:
Code:
int main (int argc, constchar* argv[]) {int i;
int a[argc - 1];
// Fill the array with the arguments on the command line
for (i = 0; i < argc - 1; i++){
a[i] = atoi(argv[i + 1]);
[Code] .....
I understand that there are probably better ways to do it than using the atoi function, but for our purposes, the professor said this was okay.
Now, I am being asked to create a separate function to perform the same task (store integers in an array). I was told I would need to declare the array "out in the main program", and that the function would need to take at least 2 arguments: an array, and an array size.
Firstly, what should my return value be? My professor gave a hint that it would be important for me to figure out what the return value is, but I don't see why it would be anything else than void.
Also, wouldn't I need a third parameter? Perhaps the integers that are being stored in the array? (But how would I represent this as a parameter)?

I want to be able to write a program where I can record user input but combine it with command line arguments. For example I do a simple getline(); and the user types test how to combine it so it could be like test /q and it gives a different output depending on what additional input was added. Can this be done with lots of different inputs?

Code:
rabin.split(argv[1])

I'm just getting back into the swing of things after a long time of not programming. I'm trying to create a program which takes in command line arguments and prints the last one. My code is as follows:
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main() {
string x;
vector<string> arguments;

And the error message I receive, a simple but frustrating one, is as follows:
Enter arguments, enter STOP to stop: Segmentation fault...
I need to write a ANSI program to print out each command line argument on a separate line using a for-loop. also it need to print the name of the executable .so far I have

int i;
printf("")

I write a program which now works perfectly well. However, I want to make it run at the right time automatically, instead of waiting for a user to start it when needed.
The basic problem is, that in a WinPE environment an exe is running. Unfortunately it would need critical input, which must be inputted perfectly. So, I wrote a program which gets the data and sends it to the other app, by bringing it to the front and presses the keys needed using SendInput().
However, this program should wait for it's cue, then get on the inputting part. It's cue should be the point where the program waits for the first user input with this displayed on the last line:
Text:
My question is: how to listen and check whether the last line displayed is "Text:"?
I've tried with AttachConsole(), but for some reason it opens a new console window. I checked and the PID I'm using is the console window's, so I don't know why that happens.
The few lines I'm trying with:
HWND hwnd = FindWindow(NULL, "Administrator: Command Prompt");
SetForegroundWindow(hwnd);
SetFocus(hwnd);
DWORD process_id;
GetWindowThreadProcessId(hwnd, &process_id);
[Code] ...
Please don't criticize the first line. I know it can be ambiguous, but I modified it, When actually using it, the exe name will be in the title, so it will be unique.
int get_command_line (char * sa) {
char * s;
char * l = fgets(s, 300*5, stdin);
int i = 0;
int j;
int n;
[Code] ....
The aim is to have the function return the number of arguments made after assigning each of the arguments to a c string stored in an array of five pointers. This is how I declare this:
int main(void)
int n;
char s0[300];
char s1[300];
char s2[300];
char s3[300];
