# cppPrac.cpp is :

  include <iostream>

  int main (int argumentCount, char * arguments[]){

    std::cout << "argument Count is " << argumentCount << "\n";
    std::cout << "argument 0 is " << arguments[0] << "\n";
    std::cout << "argument 1 is " << arguments[1] << "\n";
    std::cout << "argument 2 is " << arguments[2] << "\n";

    return 0;
  }

sys = require 'sys'
exec = require 'child_process'
exec = exec.exec

child = exec './cppPrac a b', (error, stdout, stderr) ->
  console.log 'STDOUT ', stdout
  console.log 'STDERR ', stderr
  if error isnt null
    console.log 'ERROR ', error

# output is :

# STDOUT  argument Count is 3
# argument 0 is ./cppPrac
# argument 1 is a
