I might be wrong about esql -V, so somone can correct me or Vinhson can just figure it out. Also this code segement was written on-the-fly, not compiled or unit tested, i.e., its the idea I want to convey. #include <stdio.h> int get_esql_vers(char *ver) { FILE *pipe; if ((pipe = popen("esql -V", "r")) == NULL) return 0; fgets(ver, 25, pipe); pclose(pipe); return 1; } -----== Posted via Deja News, The Leader in Internet Discussion ==----- http://www.dejanews.com/rg_mkgrp.xp Create Your Own Free Member Forum
