QProcess issue in executing a exe with command line arguments

[high_flyer]

you need to use escape character for the slashes.

Even after putting escape character it is not working. And the other thing what i observed is

1) The exe(exe without args)invokes only if i use startDetached(...) method but not start(...).
2) Even if the exe do not contains path and i try to execute the QProcess() plainly having all the required files in the current directory then also am not able to get the output. But if use something like this ,

QString str = "app.exe" + " DBFile.db" + " < " + sDataFileName;
 
system(str.toAscii());

QString str = "app.exe" + " DBFile.db" + " < " + sDataFileName;

system(str.toAscii());

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

This works!!,But the problem is, this flashes the cmd window, which is not appreciated. Any inputs would be helpful. Thanks.

Please post the code

did you use waitForFinished() before taking out the std output

yes. I tried that too. But there won't anything directed stdout, the confirmation is creation of the DBfile.db. And also there is no any stderror data too. Let me know if anything need to do.

Please post the code

I have used the same code posted above with small changes as suggested below,

First way:

QString sExeName = "\"D:\\app 1\\app.exe\"";

QString sExeName = "\"D:\\app 1\\app.exe\"";

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Second way:

QString sExeName = "\"D:/app 1/app.exe\"";

QString sExeName = "\"D:/app 1/app.exe\"";

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

And also as said in the above post, even i dump all the files in the current directory then also there is no output, means creation of file but whick works with the 'Sytem(...) command.

try this:

QString sExeName = "D:\\app 1\\app.exe";

QString sExeName = "D:\\app 1\\app.exe";
