Passing variable from c program to shell script as argument

Question

I am calling a shell script from a \'c\' program and have some variables in c which I would like to pass as arguments to the shell script. I tried using the system() to call

Answer 1

This below program have worked for me

#include 
#include 
#include 
#include 
#include 
int main(int argc, char const *argv[])
{
   
char buf[1000]; //change this length according to your arguments length
  
  int i;
  for (i=0;i

My Shell script had arguments like

sh shell-scriptname.sh -a x -b y -c z -d blah/blah/blah

I complied the C program using the following

gcc c-programname.c -o utility-name

To execute

./utility-name -a x -b y -c z -d blah/blah/blah

worked for me
