[Resolved]Capturing EXEC output

[nemesis]

Hi,

as the title says I want to capture the output os a command run with EXEC in a tbsscript for obvious reasons.

How would i go about this?

Regards,

Davy

If you can redirect to a file you could read that back in and process it. For example, 'dir' output:

Code: Select all

sub main()
  r = exec("cmd.exe /c dir >dirout.txt",1)
  printl("^n^nResult code: " # r)

  printl("^n^n-----------------------")
  printl("Contents of dirout.txt:")
  printl("-----------------------")
  f = open("dirout.txt", "uin")
  s = readl(f)
  while (s<>"")
    print(s)
    s=readl(f)
  wend
  close(f)

end sub
