Is there a way to send shell commands from a script instead of manually typing them when using KSDK1.2.0 shell interface

[roseersin]

I am using shell MQX task to get the commands from serial port on FRDM-K22F board but I am unable to figure out how to automate this. I can manually type in the command and shell interface compares the command with the list I provided in SHELL_COMMAND_STRUCT but I would like to be able to send these commands using a script. I am currently using putty to type the commands but even if I use plink (which is a command line tool for putty), I still get the same shell interface and I couldn't figure out how I can automate this. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Rose,

A method to input Shell command via "C" code is below:

void my_task(uint_32)
{
  char_ptr   ARGV[4];
  char       CMD_LINE[40]="copy a:\\test.txt c:\\my.txt";
    /* create lwevent group */
    if (_lwevent_create(&lwevent_FS,0) != MQX_OK) {
    printf("\nMake event failed");
    _task_block();
    }
    while(TRUE)
    {
    snprintf(CMD_LINE, 28, "copy a:\\test.txt c:\\my.txt");
  if (_lwevent_wait_ticks(&lwevent_FS,0b11,TRUE,0) != MQX_OK) 
  {
  printf("\nEvent Wait failed");
  _task_block();
  }
  printf("\nbefore copying\n");
  printf("%s",CMD_LINE);
  Shell_parse_command_line(CMD_LINE, ARGV);
  Shell_copy(3, ARGV);
  printf("\nafter copying\n");
  if (_lwevent_clear(&lwevent_FS,0b11) != MQX_OK) {
    printf("\nEvent Clear failed");
    _task_block();
  }
    }
}
