Re: [pstreams-users] PStream on Windows?

[Jonathan W. <jw...@mi...>]

Hi Romain,

Sorry for the missing FAQ entry, I'll fix that tonight - the answer is
probably sitting on my hard drive at home.

There are two options for PStreams on Windows.  The old popen-based
branch works on Windows, using the _popen() and _pclose() calls - but
these are only usable in console (not GUI) applications.  There is also
a full port of the PStreams code to Win32, which has been contributed
and is being worked on by Francis Andre. That code involves a major
re-write of the code and the changes conflict with some other changes
I'm working on so that code is only in CVS, on a separate branch; it is
not part of any release.  I don't know the status of the branch, if
Francis is reading this maybe he can supply more details.

Subject:  [pstreams-users] PStream on Windows?




Hello,

 I'm looking for a C++ library that runs processes and
reads stdout and stderr output. It also has to run on
the Win32 platform. I've found three libraries under a
free license:

* PStreams
* libexecstream
(http://libexecstream.sourceforge.net/)
* TubeProcess
(http://www.flyingpigs.dk/~cdbruun/software/
)

PStreams is the most active, but the FAQ says 'Can I
use PStreams on Windows ?' in the menu and the section
isn't in the page below!
TubeProcess doesn't have as many features as the two
other projects, so I'll choose between PStreams and
libexecstream.

 Best regards,

  Romain
