Forking sub-process in CppUnit?

I'm writing a network application in C++, using CppUnit for unit
testing. I'm thinking of forking a subprocess to run tcpdump in some of
my unit tests to watch actual packets on the wire as they are
transmitted and received. Has anybody done anything like this? Any
words of advice (or discouragement) ?

We are attempting to fork a php script into a background php script and have the first scrip continue to completion. Is this even possible in the windows version of php? We have used the many code snippets floating around on the Internet claiming to fork on Windows, yet we never get it to work properly, sometimes ending up with hunderds of dead php.exe processes on the machine. Our environment is: Windows 2k3 server

Hello, I'm having some trouble trying to get this simple forking http daemon to work, when I run it everything seems to run ok and then when I try to connect to it with a browser on another machine it just spits out hundreds of error messages every few seconds. Heres an example: print() on closed filehandle GEN1 at ./httpd.pl line 31 (#1) getpeername() on closed socket GEN1 at

Hi folks, I am implementing a forking SocketServer daemon that maintains significant internal state (a graph that takes ~30s to build by fetching from a SQL database, and eventually further state that may take up to an hour to build). I would like to be able to notify the daemon that it needs to update its state. Because it forks for each new request, a request handler can't update the state because then only the child would have the...

When playing games, perhaps the most simple is tic-tac-toe. The game has two simple strategies, one is defensive and the other offensive. It is not hard at first to learn how to tie games when playing an opponent. And then the next stage in development comes after you learn how to beat an opponent. You really can only employ either strategy when you get to make the first move, and your opponent will quickly learn what you are doing...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
