hi friends,
i tried to make a command string using BATCH file to run a C program. but i am not getting  wht exactly i do need.

the batch file(say tcrun.bat) is as below

echo off
cd c:\tc\bin
tcc -Lc:\tc\lib -Ic:\tc\include

and wrote this at command line to compile file.C
tcrun.bat file.c

but i got the error   
Error: No file name is given

someone please nail  the mistake out I am doing.

regards
sanThis is a mess

Code: [Select]cd c:\tc\bin
tcc -Lc:\tc\lib -Ic:\tc\include
You are passing a command line argument that is not referenced in your batch file:

Code: [Select]echo off
cd c:\tc\bin
tcc %1

The -L and -I switches are only needed when pointing to non-default directories.

Good luck.  thanks dude!!!
could you please elaborate more why it was  not working along with -I -L options?
and what does it mean by %l?

regards
sanThe -I and -L switches had nothing to do with your script not working. There was no reference to the passed argument (file.c). By using the command line reference (%1) in your script, the variable %1 will get replaced by whatever is passed as the first argument on the command line (file.c) in your case.

Also your script used the -I and -L switches. The directories you pointed to are the defaults and will get searched automatically. No harm in using them, just less typing (read: less chance of error).

Code: [Select]echo off
cd c:\tc\bin
tcc -Lc:\tc\lib -Ic:\tc\include %1

You can play around with the parameters. %1 might go before the switches.

Good luck. I appreciate you
thanks  a lot

by the way....if we use tcc file.c directly then what the matter?
is this a problem with batch file only?
and what if we want to pass second argument? Quote

For a second parameter you can use the reference %2 in your batch file. The Tiny C Compiler uses mostly switches, what do plan on passing as the second parameter?

please someone check this out and solve the problem

san_crazy, wait your turn!

Do not name your batch file shutdown, otherwise you'll run the MS command instead of your batch file.

 

san_crazy, does this have anything to do with the compiler script earlier in this thread. You asked about a second parameter, and now you've gone off and changed the topic. In the future it might be better for everybody's sanity if you started a new thread when you change topics.

You don't need the -m switch unless you're shutting down a remote machine on the network.

Code: [Select]shutdown -t %1 -f  -s

Run from the command prompt as batchfilename 120
