Your question has nothing at all to do with the C language. It is not
possible to write device drivers in standard C, so it is off-topic
here.

There is no "one" Unix.

I think that everyone who told me that my question is irrelevant, in particular Mr. David White, is being absolutely ridiculous. Obviously, most of you up here behave like the owners of the C++ language. A C++ interface installation IS ABOUT THE C++ LANGUAGE! The language does not possess the ability to handle even simple file directory manipulation. Those wise people that created it did not take care of it. So, BOOST is a portable...

Hi, This might seem like a basic question but I have some doubts, please humour me. I have a client-server application using java where each client on each machine needs to directly communicate directly with the database. Do I need a separate db2 connect on each such machine. Please advice.

The documentation is unclear (at least to me) on the permissibility of accessing DB2 (8.1.5) concurrently on and from Windows 2000 / XP / 2003, with separate transactions scope, from separate threads of a multithreaded program using embedded SQL. Since the threads do not need to share transaction scopes, the sqleAttachToCtx family of APIs do not seem to be necessary. <quote> In the default implementation of threaded applications against...

Hi- Something was just pointed out to me this morning. According to the V8 Command Reference, the RUNSTATS command no longer uses the SHRLEVEL CHANGE/REFERENCE clauses, and it looks to be replaced with ALLOW READ/WRITE ACCESS. Is SHRLEVEL still a valid clause and interchangable with ALLOW..., or has it been deprecated and is it, or will it eventually become, invalid? We currently are not seeing any errors using SHRLEVEL in our...

Hey group, I have a command line tool that I want to be able to call from a Python script. The problem is that this tool only writes to a file. So my solution is to give the tool a temporary file to write to and then have Python read that file. I figure that's the safest way to deal with this sort of thing. (But I'm open to better methods). Here's my code so far, could anyone tell me the proper way to use

In the beginning (Kernighan & Ritchie 1978) there was fprintf, and unix write, but no fwrite. That is, no portable C method for writing binary data, only system calls which were OS specific. At C89 fwrite/fread were added to the C standard to allow portable binary IO to files. I wonder though why the choice was made to extend the unix function write() into a standard C function rather than to extend the existing standard C function...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
