Using c tou run solaris command 2

[moniema]

Hello

Dear All,

Iam new to c programming and I was wondering how can I run a solaris command on c and also in scripting we can declare variables like:

setenv MM hello
and we can use it like :

echo $MM

how can this be done in c ??

I hope my question is not silly


Thannks in advance for your advices

for running operating system commands:
man system

for using operating system environment variables:
man getenv

hope this helps

It's rather unclear question, but...

const char var[] = "MM";
const char* p = getenv(var);
char  cmd[1024];
if (p)
{
   strcpy(cmd,"echo ");
   strcat(cmd,p);
   system(cmd);
}
else
   printf("Alas, no %s\n",var);
