Title: Get Commandline args
Post by: ragdog on November 01, 2011, 07:12:57 PM

Hi

I need for my new Project a commandline switch function

Example:

Tool.exe /Read "c:\folder\test.txt"

With GetCommandLine ,PathGetArgs can i get the cmd switch and quoted path
to a Buffer > /Read "c:\folder\test.txt" <
Must i parse the cmd switch?

Or gives a other Windows api as "CommandLineToArgvW" to get the cmd switches?

example
CommandLineToArgvA

Greets,

Hi ragdog,

CommandLineToArgvW is an option. Also, you can have a look at the Command Line Procedures provided with the masm32 static library.

Apparently it's a bit messy, the top Google hits for CommandLineToArgvW are not that positive. I am using GetCommandLineW for the MB wCL$() macro, example here (http://www.masm32.com/board/index.php?topic=12460.msg148836#msg148836). However, if I read the initial post right, ragdog is not really interested in Unicode...
