Question

I have this program

I’d like to amend it to use getCommandLine()
Just, after the While loop, to print what getCommandLine() returns.

I don’t know C, though I do know programming..

How can I use getCommandLine?

I know logically, getCommandLine is a Windows thing, and I have to import something, but can anybody answer with code that actually does it?

If it makes any difference, i’m compiling it with TCC(Tiny C Compiler)

#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
    int i = 0;
    while (argv[i]) {
        printf("argv[%d] = %s\n", i, argv[i]);
        i++;
    }
    return 0;
}

As documented here:

You’ll need to include <windows.h>. But I don’t think it does what you think it does. It just gives you the full command line string, in the case that you don’t have argv/argc.
