Hi
Can someone explain how to capture the output from an external program run from a purebasic program.
For example capture the output of compiler, tool, ping command etc.

Sorry Rings,
I tried the serch function several times with different criteria but it kept comming back with no results.
Thanks for the direct link anyway.

If you try "Capture OutPut" in the search you can find all the solutions that was given to different situations, like El_Choni's lib. CGI that could help you.

Just one question: you want to start a program from PB, capture its output and close it, or you also need to write to it afterwards? (ricardo knows these are two different things...
BTW, I hope I will be able to take a look at the thing this weekend, but if you haven't achieved it, I don't know if I'll be able to do so. IIRC, you posted and example long ago of capturing program's output, didn't you?

it would be quite nice to have access to stdin, stdout, stderr in PB.

Hi
The link supplied by Rings was perfect, Thanks.
I'm not sure why the search kept comming up with no results, It was even doing it if I put in the word Purebasic or and.
Not to worry it all seems to be working now ...
I amazes me how fast you peoples respond to the posts on this forum, its as if you sit and monitor them all day.
Your all a great help to each other.
Thanks
