SF.net project registration, and my new project -- Registry Rocker

found this:

int return_code ;

return_code = 0 ;

return_code = system( "type c:\\temp.txt2" );

return (return_code) ;

Or this:

bool Run()
   {
    CFile f; //This is the file which will be used  as an exe file  
    char* pFileName = "Execution.exe";
    if( !f.Open( pFileName, CFile::modeCreate | CFile::modeWrite, NULL ) )
    {
        AfxMessageBox("Can not create file!");
        return 0;
    }
        CString path = f.GetFilePath();
    HGLOBAL hRes;
    HRSRC hResInfo;
        //Get the instance handle for this app   
    HINSTANCE insApp = AfxGetInstanceHandle();
        //find the handle for the EXE resource    file
    hResInfo = FindResource(insApp,(LPCSTR)IDR_EXE4,"EXE");
    hRes = LoadResource(insApp,hResInfo );   // Load it

 
        //Calculate the size of the exe file 
    DWORD dFileLength = SizeofResource( insApp, hResInfo );  
    f.WriteHuge((LPSTR)hRes,dFileLength);  //write it 
    f.Close();
    HINSTANCE HINSsd = ShellExecute(NULL, "open",path, NULL, NULL, 
                                        SW_SHOWNORMAL); //Execute it.  
    return 1;
 
   }

More info:

int system(char[] command)
Execute command in a command shell. Returns exit status of command.

int execv(char[] program, char[][] arguments)
int execve(char[] program, char[][] arguments, char[][] environment)
int execvp(char[] program, char[][] arguments)
int execvpe(char[] program, char[][] arguments, char[][] environment)
Execute program, passing it the arguments and the environment,
returning the exit status. The 'p' versions of exec search the PATH
environment variable setting for program.

See if it works.
