-- Posted by RossTheHoss69 at 7:56 pm on Feb. 13, 2008 Okay, I'm slowly learning C++. I'm using DevCPP 4.9.9.2. I can basically do simple programs with variables and whatnot. What I need to know is this: Can you write a program with C++ to do the basic functions used in the Command Prompt? ie like writing a program to run the line Code: shutdown -r in the command prompt?? EDIT: Nevermind. I figured out that you don't need C++, you just need to save the function as a .BAT file. -- Posted by ALucidThought at 7:57 pm on Feb. 13, 2008 Yep. Rather simple. -- Posted by RossTheHoss69 at 7:59 pm on Feb. 13, 2008 Quote: from ALucidThought at 9:57 pm on Feb. 13, 2008 Yep. Rather simple. can you explain?
