Dear all,
I have a maybe simple question, but it's a headache for me:-) my question is how to represent current directory in C program. when i am using execlp() function in my c program. i always have to key in the directory where the file is located. is there a simple method ? for example a simple sign like '../' or 'use pwd',but how?
thanks in advance. Zq
1) wrong place to ask this type of question.
2) "man execlp" would yield the answer you are looking for.
3) execlp uses the current process' environment so if "." is in your PATH, no path for current directory is necessary. if "." is not in your environment, "./programname" should suffice.
