thank you..
do I just write sceKernelLoadExec("myfilename") ?
or are there other code needed?
in wich header file is it included?
( i got PSPSDK )

Just do a search in this forum. It's been covered many times before. Always search FIRST, then ask questions.

Untested, but should work.

Code: Select all

int ExecEboot(char *target){
	
	struct SceKernelLoadExecVSHParam param; 
	
	memset(&param, 0, sizeof(param)); 
	param.key = "game";
	param.size = sizeof(param);
	param.args = strlen(target)+1;
	param.argp = target; 
	
	return sctrlKernelLoadExecVSHMs2(target, &param);
}

Requires the M33 SDK - systemctrl.h

You have not declared the variable target there.
I think you wanted to put char* target instead of char* file.

Ah, yes - fixed. Small mistake made as I wrote out of my head =P Thanks for reminding me.
