I can't get spawnl, spawnv, etc., to work. These functions always return -1.
I have tried numerous variants of the code below, but the same thing always
happens (ie it prints "It didn't work :("). The program im trying to spawn is
a functional compiled djgpp program, in the same directory as the one im
trying to spawn from.
What am I doing wrong?
#include <stdio.h>
#include <process.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{ if (spawnl(P_WAIT, "", "myexe.exe")==-1)
printf ("It didn't work :(");
return 0;
}
