Title: Input / output redirection before run
Post by: POLGIA0 on December 18, 2010, 09:44:58 am

Hi, I'm not a professional programmer and I use CB to run Fortran code. Can someone suggest how to make input / output redirection in CB? More specifically I would like to read from a file instead than type input. From the console, this can be done with the console comand: program_name.exe< inputfilename. It should be possible to redirect input running the program by CB but I'm cannot find this possibility in the settings. Thanks in advance for your help.

I want to do something similar i.e redirect the contents of a file to the program so that rather than reading from stdin the program reads from the redirected input. Equivalent to pgm.exe < input

Is it possible to do this in code blocks ??

If  <input.txt is entered in the 'Program Arguments window:' it appears as a string in the char*argv[] parameter of main(..) function.

Thanks in advance.
