Restricting screen output while RUNQQ

[Anonymous42]

I'm calling one applicationby RUNQQ. The application would provide some output to the console window.

Is there a way to restrict such output while the application is running?

Thank you.

Notusing RUNQQ, but you can control it using CreateProcess. See this Steve's article on CreateProcess -- pay attention to DETACHED_PROCESS and/or CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE flags, as well as wShowWindow -> SW_HIDE (if you want to hide the other console completely).

Say that I have a QuickWin application andopen two windows (unit 1 and 2). The program that is run by RUNQQ provides an output. The output is automatically directed into a standard console window. Is there a way to direct the output to one of the two QuickWin windows?

Thank you for your advice on this,

Not with RUNQQ. You could do it with CreateProcess by sending the output to a "pipe" which you then read in a thread in the QuickWin application and wrote to the "terminal". Not difficult, but not trivial either.

Can I askyou to write mea short code that would do this:

Say there is a standard fortran console .exelocated in a C directory. When run, it writes "hello world" to the screen.

I want to use theQuickWin application to run this .exe and write the output to the QuickWin window, say unit 1.

In my case, I can't determine exactly the length of lines and the number of lines that the .exe reports, butI want all output directed to the QuickWin window.

I very appreciateyour help,

Thank you,

Milan

No, sorry, I won't be able to write you such code. Perhaps someone else is willing to offer.
