julia> cmd = Cmd(`zwrot.exe`)
`zwrot.exe`

julia> run(cmd)
ERROR: failed process: Process(`zwrot.exe`, ProcessExited(70)) [70]

Thanks,
Is posible to call with some argument ( if exe return func ) ?

I don’t understand your question fully, but you can certainly pass arguments to executables via cmd = `zwrot.exe x` or similar.

I can t to send argument to file.exe,
In C++ is :

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int pierwsza(int n);

int main() {
    int n;
    cout<<"Podaj ktora liczbe pierwsza mam wyswielic: ";
    cin>>n;
    cout<<"Jest to liczba: "<<pierwsza(n)<<endl;
    system("pause");
    return 0;
}

int pierwsza(int n) {
    int j=1;
    int wynik=2;
    for (int i=2;j<n;i++) {
        for (int k=2;k<i;k++) {
            if (i%k == 0) {
                break;
            }
            if (k == i-1) {
                j++;
            }
        }
        wynik=i;
    }
    return wynik;
}

compiled file C++FirstProject.exe

How to call to exe file with arg ?

Jest to liczba: 5

Is OK!
But if a call run ONLY with arg not works. :confused:

julia> cmd = Cmd(`C++FirstProject.exe`)
`C++FirstProject.exe`

julia> p = run(cmd, 3, wait=false)

How to call to exe file with arg =3 and get just 5 ?
