Function to execute batch file C++ -

i want execute bath file using system() , path file passed function this:

void executebatch(char* batchfile){     system(batchfile); } 

now issue path passed in not have escape quotes ignore spaces example user input:

"c:\\users\\500543\\documents\\batch file project\\testing.bat" 

how add escape quotes path passed in?

so essentually change:

"c:\\users\\500543\\documents\\batch file project\\testing.bat" 

to

"\"c:\\users\\500543\\documents\\batch file project\\testing.bat\"" 

i assume want that:

void executebatch(char* batchfile){ string cmd(batchfile) string expandcmd = string(""\\") + cmd + string("\\""); system(expandcmd.c_str()); }
