Programming :: Book Recommendation For C++ GUI Programming?
Apr 13, 2011
I am not new to PC programming. I have been able to write C++ console programs. They are not too hard to write.Now, I want to move up to the Linux C++ Graphical User Interface (GUI) programming.Can an experienced member of the Linux community recommend a good reference book for programming the GUI windows?
I am learning network programming via a book of Richard Stevens.The sample source codes are given here http://www.unpbook.com/unpv13e.tar.gz I downloaded and unzipped the file in /usr/src folder.As per the instructions given in README of downloaded archive I did.
I work for a small retail company which until recently consisted of just one location. This month, we will open two new stores.I have been given the task of setting up a VPN network between the three locations and maintaining it.This network will consist of a main data server on the original location which has four client computers.The second location (another part of town) will have three clients, and the third location will have one client, all connected to the main data server (Retail POS system.) This will be a hardware VPN, with the main data server and all of the client computers running Windows XP.I have been working with the telecom company that is installing the phone system and is providing the routers at each location for the VPN.
I realize that since these are all Windows based machines it is not a Linux question, but I know that many of the experts here maintain Windows machines as well in their work. I am not an IT professional (I am a gemologist), but because I have been a Linux user for most of the last ten years, my boss seems to think I could handle this task so rather than contract this work out, he has asked me to do this. I truly enjoy this type of work, but I am concerned that my lack of knowledge is going to catch up with me, even though I do have a fairly good basic knowledge of Linux networking.
My question is simply this: Can anyone here recommend a good book or online training course which will give me the knowledge I need to maintain this system and trouble shoot it? I have searched online and there are literally hundreds of such books and it is like wading through a swamp. With such a small network, I am sure I can learn what I need, but if someone can recommend a good training/reference book that you have personal knowledge of, I would appreciate the recommendation.
I'm looking for javascript tutorials or books that meets the following criteria:
1. Very thorough: Starts with the most fundamental concepts and progresses logically from basic to advanced concepts, without skipping over important ideas for the sake of expediency.
2. Lots of small practice exercises that parallel the concepts and syntax being learned.
I've looked at a lot of tutorials, but they all tend to be lacking in one of these areas or the other.
The issue which I am having is that, when it does the search for the correct row to be inputted into valuecheck, it will input the value as written in the database, which is in Uppercase. For this case, if I type in stupid for $Title and jerlyn for $Author, it searches the correct row, but the awk will print "STUPID" into the variable as that is what is written in the database. So how can I make my if statement case insensitive? Currently it reads like this:
Code: if [ $Title = $valuecheck ] ; then which means if [stupid = StUPiD ] ; then
How can I make the if statement it case insensitive to allow it to display "HOHOHO"
I would like to unzip a simple PHP code files, to have a online PHP contact / phone book. Simply, slow, and not database oriented over complicated setups into settings. I have a PHP / web provider (free), not apache. WITHOUT SQL (like before it may exists) something like this [URL]
I am interested in learning 3D programming. The thing is, I would hate to put too much effort to learn something that doesn't have future and is dying. My favorite language at the time is Java. My goal is professional programming.
So I have several questions: 1. Should I learn JOGL or start learning C++ and do C++ openGL programming? 2. Is there a big difference between JOGL and C++ openGL programming? 3. Is it worth to learn openGL? Does it have a future? 4. Is it a big difference between openGL and directX coding? 5. If choosing Java, then JOGL or LWJGL?
Groovy is an object-oriented programming language for the Java platform. I do not have experience in Java, only perl and shell scripts. Recently I have been asked to maintain a software written in groovy (also to make enhancements). So can I learn groovy without knowing java language. or isit I have to learn java before venturing into groovy.
I did searched you tube but my results were not great.I have 2 books on KernelProgramming.I feel I need if some where I can get a video tutorial which can help me to understand how to develop a Linux Device driver that will be great.I had a look at Greg Kroah Hartmans video lecture of developing patches on ......I have been reading books and a lot of stuff.So I wish if I could get a video lecture that would be better
I have a server listening on incoming client connections. Once the client establishes SSL connection with the server, the server waits on read() from the client. Only Client can disconnect the connection. I want to have a timer in the server program to wait for x secs after read() and then disconnect the Client connection.
I want that I click with the mouse on the video, it paused.I notice that there is "BaconVideoWidget" which I guess is the video rendering widget but it don't have signal named "clicked":
i have a server program which accept multiple client connection and am using polling. like every 2 secs it will look to client whether any data is received after it binded. i have used setitimer but there is runtime error i got.. the server accept all client connection but doesn't execute any msg which client sent.
A simple TCP based chat server could allow users to use any TCP client (telnet, for example) to communicate with each other. For this question you should consider a single process, single thread server that can support exactly 2 clients at once, the server simply forwards whatever is sent from one client to the other (in both directions). Your server must not insist on any specific ordering of messages as soon as something is sent from one client it is immediately forwarded to the other client. As soon as either client terminates the connection the server can exit
We have documents on multiple workstations and want to collate them into a single repository to provide text search and download. So far we have implemented rsync to copy files from each workstation under a directory for each workstation on a server (incidentally providing a backup) and have set up text search using Xapian with Omega; users access it via a web browser. Still to do is to set up a system to copy files from each workstation's area on the server to the repository.
Many files are duplicated. In these cases we want to preserve the names but keep a single copy of the file;hard links can be used for that.For each file to be copied from a workstation's area into the collated area we need to check whether it is a duplicate (file size and, if same, MD5 sum) and if so, create a hard link to the original rather than create a copy.A system to detect and replace duplicates in the collated area has been written using ruby and postgresql but the developer cannot commit to continuing this work. It does mean we have a postgresql database populated with "fingerprints" of files in the collated area.My first priority is to get the system working; in the longer term whatever is developed must be maintainable; I do not yet know which language skills are available locally.
I am fluent in bash and competent with awk. Ruby looks nice but I have started to learn python and do think it prudent to learn both at the same time. Python's postgresql capabilities are not settled but may be fine for the simple usage required.What to do? A bash solution would run very slowly but could be developed quickly. Language knowledge aside, I have found it difficult to install ruby on the server (CentOS 5.5;installed rvm but "gem" still not installed; seems a very complex system with its own package management).
i have problem in socket programming, while displaying received message in file,i got a problem... i cant able to write it in the file.... this is the code....
now my problem is run time error i can able to create file but i cant able to write file....log.txt contain nothing.... as here i have give sample code... dont say not initialising function and all.... i have initialised , please only see func1() - my problem is only not able to write msg which i got received from the client..
I've been working in the real world for a year making some money to go back and finish my masters, and now I'm coming to the end of my contract and am realising how little i remember and how small my scope has become; i basically do shell scripts and perl these days, and its making me uneasy. So instead of bitching about it , I'm going to endevor to complete Project Euler Using randomly generated programming languages for each problem, selected from
And post the fruits of my attempts at my blog (shameless plug) aswell as opening up my svn repository when I'm done. (altho i need to ask in another thread about svn permissions....)To my shame i havent ever touched C#, JavaScript, Ruby or Python, so all in all its going to be very interesting how much i screw up.Anyone have any additional ideas, or languages I'm missing or such? I was considering TCL or Haskell or Erlang at a strech, but i dont know how useful these three would be.
I trying to write a UART(interfacing of serial devices) to linux machine but after I execute the following code to receive data I need to enter key (carriage return).... but I don't want to remove carriage return/enter key
i want a process that can operate as both a TCP echo server and a UDP echo server. The process can provide service to many clients at the same time, but involves a single process that does not start up any other threads.
I want to design an audio chat programming in Ubuntu.So how shall I proceed? Any help on this please?I am complete novice in this topic. Currently my aim is to capture audio from microphone.
I need to rename the resulted searched files from a loopI have the following code:
find . -name DOC* | while read i do find $i -type f -name '*.txt' done
basically, I am searching for all txt files inside any folder starting with DOC name.this code is working fine with me.I need to rename those .txt files to .txtOLDOS: Ubuntu 10.4Bash shell
im trying to build a simple program for my C programming class, this is the source code
#include <stdio.h> int main() { int length, width, length, height, area, perimeter; perimeter = width + length + height; area = width * length + heigth;
[Code]...
i dont see any error (you might)but every time i run it it runs but after it asks me to input for the width i do it but it doesn't take me to the length, it just stays blank until i input another value in the same place for the width, it asks me for 4 inputs in total i don;t know why, and after i run it different times it gives me different values for the perimeter and are. how can I fix this?
