Functions HI-TECH C EXECL

EXECL, EXECV

SYNOPSIS

#include  <sys.h>

int execl(char * name, pname, ...)
int execv(char * name, ppname)

DESCRIPTION

Execl() and execv() load and execute the program specified by the string name. Execl() takes the arguments for the program from the zero-terminated list of string arguments. Execv() is passed a pointer to an array of strings. The array must be zero-terminated. If the named program is found and can be read, the call does not return. Thus any return from these routines may be treated as an error.
