I am so sorry.
I should have searched this forum before posting my question.
This problem can easily be solved by using popen() like it was suggested in thread below.
Sort of:
Code:
/*****************************************************************************
Excerpt from "Linux Programmer's Guide - Chapter 6"
(C)opyright 1994-1995, Scott Burkett
*****************************************************************************
MODULE: popen2.c
*****************************************************************************/
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
FILE *pipein_fp, *pipeout_fp;
char readbuf[80];
/* Create one way pipe line with call to popen() */
if (( pipein_fp = popen("ls", "r")) == NULL)
{
perror("popen");
exit(1);
}
/* Create one way pipe line with call to popen() */
if (( pipeout_fp = popen("sort", "w")) == NULL)
{
perror("popen");
exit(1);
}
/* Processing loop */
while(fgets(readbuf, 80, pipein_fp))
fputs(readbuf, pipeout_fp);
/* Close the pipes */
pclose(pipein_fp);
pclose(pipeout_fp);
return(0);
}
Sorry ones again.
