[Q] Any unix extension to standard C library for providing set collection operations?

Hi,

I am using freeBSD.
I know std:set can be used in C++ for set colleciton .

If I use only C for developing some applicaiton on freeBSD, is there
any unix extension to standard C library or alternative library for
'set'(i.e, uniqueness) operation?

BTW, what I mean by unix extension is something like 'insque' or
'remque' which is not a part of standard C lib functions.
thanks

You will need to ask somewhere that unix extensions are topical such as
comp.unix.progr ammer. Here we only deal with standard C.

Off topic. Not portable. Cant discuss it here. Blah, blah, blah.

Useful clc-related links:

You could probably get the source from the OpenBSD versions.
BTW, "I am searching for software 'X' is not really topical.

If you want to talk about programming techniques, probably
news:comp.progr amming is a better place than here.

It sounds to me like you just want a dictionary data structure. There
are lots of those available.

Now that I have a better grasp of the scope and capabilities of the C++ Standard Library, I understand that products such as Qt actually provide much of the same functionality through their own libraries.

That is, QLT can interoperate with STL, and you can convert back and forth between std::string and Qt::QString, etc. Are there any...

Hi, I have a question that deals with the standard c library VS (Unix) system calls. The question is: which header files (and functions) are part of the C library and which header files (and function calls) are part of the (Unix) system calls.

On what basis it is decided that a particular funtion should be a part of Standard C library ? Do I get these standard C libraries along with the C compiler ? Or I can use the c complier from one vendor and the standard C libraries from the different vendor ? Also, the C standard (N869), page 164, refers to "standard headers". Do I get these standard headers along with the C compiler ?

In the C programming language, I/O operation functions are declared in stdio.h, for example, fopen(), fclose(), fwrite(), fread(), fseek() ... But another set of I/O functions are also defined in Unix, for example, open(), close(), read(), write(), lseek() ... Which set of functions is more suitable for I/O task, C library version or Unix version? Thank you

Thanks for the helpful replies on the other thread. Essentially it was pointed out that a process with the same UID as the ones writing/reading the pipes would be able to examine the memory of the pipe writers/readers and figure out what data had flowed. Here is my application (and I'd be grateful for any other advice). I'm incorporating cryptographic FOBs into my PHP-based database application to enhance login security.

Someone recently asked about reading lines. I had this code written some time ago (part of a BASIC-style interpreter based on H. Shildts in Art of C) to read a file with the lines ended in any format: Microsoft-style CR/LF pair, Unix-style NL, or Mac-style CR. It also allows for EOF that does not follow a blank line. I thought this would make text-file sharing a bit easier. Here it is: /* Load a file, normalizing newlines to *nix...
