How To Redirect Output To Dev Null In C 8,3/10 8692 reviews

I have an application that logs a lot of noise to stderr and REALLY slows down the execution of the application. I would like to redirect that output to null. Is this possible with cmd.exe? /path/to/program arg1 arg2 /dev/null 2 /dev/null The syntax 2&1 means 'Send output currently going to file descriptor 2 to the same place that output going to file descriptor 1 is going to'. is omitting the default of FD1, so it is semantically the same as 1, which might make 2 make more sense. All data written on a /dev/null or /dev/zero special file is discarded by the system. Use /dev/null to send any unwanted output from program/command and syntax is: command /dev/null. This syntax redirects the command standard output messages to /dev/null where it is ignored by the shell. OR command 2/dev/null. The start command will start a detached process, a similar effect to &. The /B option prevents start from opening a new terminal window if the program you are running is a console application. And NUL is Windows' equivalent of /dev/null. The 2&1 at the end will redirect stderr to stdout, which will all go to NUL. I have a command I am running produces a ton of output, I want to silence the output without writing to a file. I have used the following to send all output to a file, but again I don't want any file output: command out.txt 2&1 I have used command /dev/null on my CentOS box before, but I can't find a similar thing for windows.

I‘m a new Linux system user. How can I redirect command error output /dev/null on a Linux or Unix-like system using Bash shell?
Your shell comes with three file descriptors as follows:
Advertisements
  1. stdin – 0 – Standard Input (usually keyboard or file)
  2. stdout – 1 – Standard Output (usually screen)
  3. stderr – 2 – Standard Error (usually screen)
