How to execute an irrlicht program witch have received an external parameter like a file name. For example, MyMenu test.bsp ?
I'm using the system function but after, I don't know how to do in the target app.

Many thx

WinMain() or main() takes external paramters example:

int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hinstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, LPSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow)

Sorry, I gave a wrong description of my problem.

I'm using the folowing code with a default parameter for my test :

Code: Select all

int main(char *MyFile="test.bsp")
...
  IAnimatedMesh* mesh = smgr->getMesh(MyFile);

Of course, the program is crashing, but I don't know how to do that.

Thx
