Try To run .exe using Qt QProcess

AmrCoder

I try to compile a .exe file that takes arguments using QProcess but I don't get any output
code

  QString program = QDir::currentPath() + "/pdftotext.exe"; // programe path
  QStringList arguments;
  arguments << "-f 1 a.pdf out.txt"; // argument that take
  //arguments << "-f 1 \"D:/a.pdf\" \"D:/out.txt\"; // i try this first 

  QProcess *myProcess = new QProcess(this);
  myProcess->start(program, arguments);
  qDebug() << myProcess->errorString();

the .exe file run from cmd as

C:\> pdftotext.exe -f 1 "D:\a.pdf" "D:\out.txt"

how can i solve this
Thanks

Hi,

arguments is a QStringList, each element of your arguments must be added one by one to that string list.

Thank You @SGaist solved

arguments << "-f" << "1" << "D:/amr.pdf" << "D:/out.txt";
