While looking for hooks history in Fossil (as Ron Wilson said I wasn't the
first) I came into this:
http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/pipermail/fossil-users/2011-January/003921.html
Where D. Richard Hipp said that:
...But in order to implement this different mechanism, I need example
C code for launching a background process in windows that is not
associated with an console. Doing that is easy in Unix,but I'm not
sure how to do it in windows. ..."
I used to work with Windows, so I wrote a tiny demo that I hope suits what
Richard needed. It's attached into this email. I rather go directly into a
shell that having to set up a server. Ran it with mingw, and I'm pretty
sure will run with any Microsoft compiler.
This one will print "it was a great day" whenever executed from the command
line, with one or more parameters. If I run it as a spawned process, it
won't print anything at all into the console. I want to check if this is
the needed behaviour. Please Richard, can you confirm it, or tell me
exactly what you need. I can write the Windows counterpart of the Unix
code, and even test it (have one MS box at home).
PS: thanks for the security measure, I will test it ASAP
