DESCRIPTION
popen_nosh
,
popen_execsp
and
pclose_nosh
are almost drop
in replacement for
popen
(3) and
pclose
(3)
provided by the libc.
popen_nosh
and
popen_execsp
are synonyms: they parse the command
string and run the command directly, without using a shell.
Command arguments in
args
are delimited by space
characters (blank, tabs or new lines). Single or double
quotes can be used to delimitate command arguments including
spaces and a non quoted backslash (
\
) is the escape
character to protect the next char. The executable file is
sought using the PATH environment variable as explained for
execlp
(3).
pclose_nosh
closes a stream opened by
popen_nosh
.
popen_execs
requires the path of the executable to be
specified as its first parameter so it does not use the PATH
environment variable.
pclose_execs
closes a stream
opened by
popen_execs
.
RETURN VALUE
These functions have the same return values of popen (3) and pclose (3).
