In the above example, the functions take no input arguments. Can they take a different number of arguments, for example, function_a(int), function_c(int, int), function_e(int, char, int)? How can I do that?
i'm a bit stuck playing with the following class setup for glut. The actual issue is with the function pointers.Basically the following code is the opengl redbook cube example slightly modified.
I want to know is there some more efficient way of passing a pointer to a local variable as a parameter to a function in x86 asm? Right now I have to move the base pointer to a temp register, subtract from the register and pass that, like this (assuming a local var at esp-4):
Code: mov eax, ebp sub eax, 4 push eax Is there a better way?
I'm trying to compile the hidtouch driver, but hit a snag. The error I get is
[code]....
Context: this is the driver for the touchscreen attached to an LTSP client. The server uses the AMD64 arch, the client uses the 1386 arch, both Debian. The client does start, but lacking a pointer device the pointer is useless. The build takes place on the server, in the i386 chroot of the LTSP setup. Basically, I'm stuck now...
I need to pass a large number of arguments to a function which takes variable number of arguments, such as gtk_list_store_new. But it doesn't look nice if i write something like gtk_list_store_new(NUM,TYPE_A,TYPE_B,TYPE_C,...,TYPE_OMEGA); because of large number of arguments. And, it will be a trouble to change number of columns because of need to manually change arguments to large number of such functions. So, how can i pass all the arguments to a function using a loop? Something like
I was wondering if possible in bash for a variable to take the value of a function, I mean the function returns a value and a variable will take it. example:
I have a class in which a have declared a private variable "time". In one of the public functions, I am returning the value of "time" (either directly by using "return time;" or by something similar to "x=time; return x;" but I keep getting a compiling error saying that "time" is not declared in this scope.
Does declaring variable inside a function give an extra overhead on an application? Would it be better to declare the variable globally and just reuse it? Example
Code:
#include <blah> char mybuffer[2048]; int main()
[code]....
The only difference is the declaration of my variable. Since myfunction() will be called many times will it add an additional overhead if it will create mybuffer[2048] over and over?
I wanted to make an alias with arguments (like in cshell) which is in bash done by functions. The function must simply perform a command (nedit), append the arguments from the cli and make it run in the background (adding &).
So here is the function in a naive attempt:
Code:
when using the command
Code:
Code:
How can i use arguments and still start it in background? In cshell it was like:
processArgs $* If I call this script with Code: ./script first second third it'll print each of the argument on a new line - exactly what I would expect. However if I call it with
Code: ./script "Single Argument" "Second-Argument" it splits the first argument in two using the space as a delimitor. The problem appears to be the call to processArgs, where $* doesn't honour the quotes around the variables sent to the script.
Problem: I need a method to maintain the $i variable. In fact, actually, this variable get lost when executed. I think that an escape can preserve this variable and permit its execution inside the function, but I've no idea about.
i'm practicing in very basic c programs using the gcc compiler.I found that when i create two variables let's say
Code:
int a,b and Code: a=15; b=3; a=b; b--;
then a equals 2.I thought that this isn't normal in C isn't it?I haven't had the time to read the gcc documentation yet...so i think it has something to do with my compiler's default settings.I use the
Code: gcc filename.c -o filename command to compile
What is the difference between *ptr++ and (*ptr)++. In my opinion the terminology is all over the place so if you could give an example it would be better.
I am doing some Linux kernel programming for my research project. I need to record the timestamp (by using cpuid and rdtsc) when an interrupt handler (top half) is first invoked. Due to the time critical nature of the problem itself, I have to do the timestamping inside the interrupt handler itself (the first operation when the handler is called). However, I understand that tasks that are not so time critical should be deferred to a tasklet function (bottom half) for processing because other interrupts are disabled in a (top-half) interrupt handler. I am currently out of idea on how I can pass the timestamp information that I have obtained in the interrupt handler to the corresponding tasklet function.
I'm trying to figure out how to code for this specific type of instance - I want to use a hash and have the key be a reference to an array, and not use the key in the standard way of it being a scalar. Basically, I have a large output that I need to process line by line, and rather have access to it as an array than a big block in a scalar. For the big block hash as a scalar I would do -
How would I code it that I would have access to the key information as an array and not a scalar? I know it needs to be a pointer and we're going to have -> in there somewhere, but not sure how to approach it. Some of the documentaiton I've been reading about referencing I've found a little confusing so far, and trying to figure out how to use them in context of what I'm working on.
I am trying to find a way to pull Node Pointers out of the model, for use in other areas of the program. The solution is probably simple but I haven't had any luck finding it.
Model for a QTreeView:
Code:
class testModel : public QAbstractItemModel { public: testModel(); ~testModel();
I have the most strange problem ever in programming. I fork a process into a parent and a child. In every forked process i declare a pointer, malloc and define a different value for every pointer.When i printf the value and the address guess what? They both have the SAME ADDRESS but DIFFERENT values, as assigned..Here's the portion of my code:
I'm trying to read content of file to variable and use this variable in for loop. The problem is, when I have c++ comment style in file - /*. Spaces in line are also interpreted as separated lines.
For example:
Code:
Changing $files to "$files" eliminate these problems but causes that whole content of variable is treated as one string (one execution of loop).
my script has a variable which comes in the form +00.00 +0.00 -00.00 or -0.00 (the numbers can be any in that form) for any that have a + symbol I need to remove the +, but if it has a - symbol it needs to stay.
i need to make a new variable with the string from the old variable btut without any plus sign. I have tried a lot of different ways with no success, each thing I tried either left the + or removed the entire string. I think this should work but doesn't
The first two rows of the second column are being replaced into the last two rows of the first column, now I even checked in visual studio and it works fine there. A friend tried my code and he gets it even worse: column 1:
0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,1 column 2: 1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1
As far as I've seen it must be a problem with GCC, unfortunately I need to have this up and running in GCC no matter what.
I wrote a C program using Pthreads to compute the product of 2 matrices. Each element in the product matrix is computed in a separate thread. Eg: Thread (i,j) computes the element C[i][j] of the matrix C, where C=A*B. A is m*n, B is n*p, C is m*p. m,n,p are given as command-line arguments. A and B are initialized to random values from 1 to 10, while all elements of C are initialized to -1.But some threads do not get their arguments (i,j) correctly. So some elements C[i][j] still remain as -1, even after the program is over. My OS is Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat) 32-bit.I ran the program on another computer and it worked correctly. Is it due to a problem in the Pthreads library in my OS? Please help me. I have attached the source code.
