[SOLVED] QProcess special symbols
-
Hello... I have process which execute following command - "cmd /C app.exe --arguments"... It works fine as long as arguments do not contain any special symbols (%&<)... My argument looks like --password "aa<we71%"...
That argument does not work if I don't convert those special symbols like shown in "this ":http://www.robvanderwoude.com/escapechars.php website..."aa<we71%"
I can change it manually into "aa^<we71%%" and it will work fine... But I want it to be automated... So I would like to know if Qt has any function that would convert string into command line readable text...
@ QString name = "aa<we71%";
name.replace("<", "^<"); // 1.st replace name.replace("%", "%%"); // 2.nd replace name.replace("^", "^^"); // 3rd replace@
@I tried with code above but it does not work as supposed... It first replaces < with ^< and new word is "aa^<we71%"... But then in the next 3rd replace it will change ^ into ^^ and that is no longer symbol <...

I hope you understand what I am saying... So if Qt does not have any function that would do that, how can I do such thing? I could probably put each letter of the word into array and convert one by one and then put them together but that is my last option... -
Hi,
AFAIK, there's no such automatic conversion for special characters. So you would probably need e.g. a regexp to do it
