Issue |
In QNX4 using Watcom 10.6, can an executable that is referenced by a symlink be spawned from code using the symlink as the argument to spawn?
|
Solution |
Yes, you can use a symlink as the path or file argument to the spawn family of functions.
spawnl( mode, path, arg0, arg1, ... argn, NULL) spawnvpe( mode, file, argv, envp )
