macOS Launch Application with CmdLine

[dom3d]

I want to use LaunchApplication

Bool SYS_LaunchExeFile(const char FileName[], const char CmdLine[], bool bForeground )
{
	LaunchParamBlockRec    launchParams;
...

	Status = LaunchApplication( &launchParams );
...
}

And I don't know how define CmdLine to structure LaunchParamBlockRec.
Help me please.

Exactly what are you trying to do?

Are you trying to launch a command-line tool like 'ls' or 'cat'?

Or are you trying to launch a graphical application like TextEdit?

What do you want to happen after the launch?

If you're following a book or tutorial, identify exactly which one it is: URL, title, author, etc.

Do you want gmsh to finish running, or do you want to let gmsh run concurrently?


Is there some reason you can't use the standard C library function system()?

Or maybe popen()?

What is your programming experience? Have you written C programs? Have you written Mac OS X programs?

Are you porting gmsh? Writing a new program to use gmsh?

chown33, thank you for your answer. I try to use your version of code.

I have programming experience C++ on Windows 10 years.
But on Mac OS X I working about two month. In old project Cobalt.
Function LaunchApplication I found in src of program Cobalt.

I've never heard of Cobalt. When I google (mac os cobalt), I don't see much other than an expensive 3D program listed on VersionTracker. I don't see any source.

If you expect someone else to know what you mean by Cobalt, you'll have to be more specific.
