request about scp command (QProcess) using qt

[hlowd]

@jsulm

The scp.exe file exists in that path.

C:\Windows\System32\OpenSSH

I don't know why I couldn't find it using Explorer search.

Does it work with this path?

No, it doesn't work..

This really should not be too difficult to diagnose, if you stick to what is suggested and report behaviour.

First try both of

scp
\full\path\to\scp

in a Command Prompt. I assume at least one "works", and produces a "usage" output message?

Whichever produces the message, now try from a Qt program

QProcess proc;
proc.start(".....");    // here try whichever worked in Command Prompt
qDebug() << proc.waitForFinished();
qDebug() << proc.readAll();

and report output.

@JonB

it works(data is output)

• output 1 : true
• output 2 : "\r\nWindows IP ....."

QProcess proc;
proc.start("ipconfig /all");
qDebug() << "output 1 : " << proc.waitForFinished();
qDebug() << "output 2 : " << proc.readAll();

do not Working

• output 1 : false
• output 2 : ""

QProcess proc;
proc.start("scp C:\\Users\\user\\a.ini user@192.168.1.250:/home/user/SW/");
qDebug() << "output 1 : " << proc.waitForFinished();
qDebug() << "output 2 : " << proc.readAll();

this is also do not working

• output 1 : false
• output 2 : ""

QProcess proc;
    proc.start("C:\\Windows\\System32\\OpenSSH\\scp.exe C:\\Users\\user\\a.ini user@192.168.1.250:/home/user/SW/");
    qDebug() << "output 1 : " << proc.waitForFinished();
    qDebug() << "output 2 : " << proc.readAll();

@hlowd Could you please read QProcess documentation?!
The way you're using QProcess is wrong: all parameters should be part of arguments list. And what about adding error handling as already suggested?

proc.start("scp C:\Users\user\a.ini user@192.168.1.250:/home/user/SW/");

You need argument list for QProcess
The whole statement in start wont work.

Here in your similar topic is an example by @ChrisW67 and me..

So, as I suspected, this shows you are not using QProcess::start() correctly. (It is also not the same as the code you posted in earlier, which was correct at one point.) Which is why I asked you to clarify this. If start("scp", ...) or start("/path/to/scp", ...) run the scp executable, and perhaps produce "usage" output you can capture, it shows that is working.

Your other attempts should all indeed fail as you incorrectly try to pass arguments in the string which should be the executable. The example at https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qprocess.html#running-a-process shows how to do this correctly. If you are on Qt 6.0+ there is a new method, startCommand(), which works the way you tried, if you really want to do it that way.
