Good evening,
So i've this project to create a window where i can execute programs from.
I'm really tired of searching so i decided to ask for someone's help.
anyways i made a program that shows a window etc but my problem is that i want to execute some functions, such as printf("hello world!").. I dont' know how to bring that .exe file and i don't know how to put it, i've a feeling that i've to use createProcess but i don't know how to put it.
To be more specific: i wanna execute this simple program on my window:



int n;
printf("Enter an integer");
scanf("%d",n);



for example, that's what i want.
Hope that you get what i mean.
Program used: Code::Blocks
Language: C, not c++.
Thanks.
