calling script with argument from C program

[siddheshbade]

Hi all,
I am trying to take argument from command line ic a Cprogram an give that argument as an argument to a script file which is called in that C program.Is it possible for example:
my C program is:
#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int size;
char *t=NULL;
size=strlen(argv[1]);
t=(char *)malloc(sizeof(char)*size);
strcpy(t,argv[1]);
printf("%s",t);
system("./temp1.sh ______");
}

I want to fill that blank with thevalue of argv[1] such that it will act as an argument for temp1.sh.
Please help.......

I have to ask, is this a class assignment?

Nop its not a class assignment, I have accomplished it by using string concatenation and passing the string to the system() but is there some direct way to do that????

You can fork and run one of the exec() functions which will allow you to pass the arguments and such in a more rational way. See the man page for exec, execlp, execv, et al.
