I'm writing a C program where I fork(), exec(), and wait(). I'd like to take the output of the program I exec'ed to write it to file or buffer.
For example, if I exec ls I want to write file1 file2 etc to buffer/file. I don't think there is a way to read stdout, so does that mean I have to use a pipe? Is there a general procedure here that I haven't been able to find?
Hello,
I am writing a user defined function to DB2 on AS/400 in Java and the strangest thing happen..

I am currently writing a plug-in framework for my application. I would like to be able to release plugins without having to update my application, and I intend on making the framework available for third party plugins. I am currently running into issues when two plugins ship with identical frameworks. When the plugins are loaded the runtime gets confused because the framework gets loaded twice. What is the best way to mitigate this issue?
I am writing a piece of small software to go through the folders and files of all the php projects that are passed in and detect if any of them is actually also a Zend project. Is there any particular file that I can immediately read and tell that the current project is a Zend project? or is there any convenient way to tell?
Hey guys,
I am writing some unit tests and I'm getting an exception thrown from my real code when trying to do the following:
string IPaddress = HttpContext.Current.Request.UserHostName.ToString();
Is there a way to mock up an IP address without rewriting my code to accept IP address as a parameter?
Thanks!
I am writing Javascript code using Google maps API.
map = new google.maps.Map2(document.getElementById("map_canvas"));
map.setCenter(new google.maps.LatLng(37.4419, -122.1419), 13);
The above code sets the default location of the map canvas to Palo Alto.
How can we write the script in such a way that the setCenter function automatically points to the current location of the client?
I have a uri string like: http://example.com/file?a=1&b=2&c=string%20param
Is there an existing function that would convert query parameter string into a dictionary same way as ASP.NET Context.Request does it.
I'm writing a console app and not a web-service so there is no Context.Request to parse the URL for me.
I know that it's pretty easy to crack the query string myself but I'd rather use a FCL function is if exists.
The connection string in my app.config for my C# project looks like
Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename='|DataDirectory|\EIC.mdf';Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"
I am writing unit tests for the project and have the set the test run configuration to copy the EIC.mdf, but I do am not able to reference the Deployed copy of EIC.mdf to be referenced by the app.config I created for the test project. If I set it to
Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename='EIC.mdf';Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"
It still does not find the mdf file.
I'm writing facebook app in fbml (not in iframe).
I added comments with <fb:comments ...> and it appears to work.
However, to add a comment, user has to click Add a comment... link to see the textarea and post button.
I am wondering is there a way to automatically show the form?
I want it to really look like here:
developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/comments
(with or without the like button)

(Basically, this question http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1154446/is-file-append-atomic-in-unix but for Windows/NTFS.)
When writing a question in Stack Overflow, it will give you a red bar with a warning if the question looks subjective.
Subjective or non-programming questions (e.g., What is your faviourite programming language?) seem to be easily recognized.
How, exactly, isthis done? Heuristics, algorithms, machine learning?
I'm amazed!
Where does the Windows XP control panel get the value for the "Comments" field from? I'm writing an EXE control panel application, and it doesn't appear from the documentation that you can provide a value for that field.
See the little vertical lines? They're damn helpful when writing Python code. Any chance I could get something similar for gedit? I wouldn't mind having to write my own plugin, as long as it's in Python... So:
Is there a plugin for this in gedit?
If not, would it be possible to write one in Python.
I have an existing Windows app for which I'm writing an Android port. The app uses a unique string as the primary key, but the SQLite methods in Android all seem to work with integers and a column names _id, whereas my ID column isn't called this. Is there a way to let Android know I have a key with a different column name?
I have read many strong views (both for and against) SPs or DS.
I am writing a query engine in C++ (mySQL backend for now, though I may decide to go with a C++ ORM). I cant decide whether to write a SP, or to dynamically creat the SQL and send the query to the db engine.#
Any tips on how to decide?
I don't normally use VB, and even less vba for excel, but I'm writing a function inside a macro and seem to not understand even the basics of creating a function
For example
Public Function test() As Integer
return 1
End Function
This gives a compile error.
This is profoundly stupid, but how do I make a function return an integer in vba?
In my Master thesis i want to append a paper as an appendix to the thesis. I am writing in LateX in the "report" style. At the end of the thesis there are some code in Appendix A, and in Appendix B i want to add a paper, written in latex. How do i append the paper at the end, as a standalone paper, with its own bibliography etc?
Hello,
I'm working on .net project and writing an application that interacts with database. I currently have some SQL statements in the code and I want to put these statements in separate file with solution. So, later when the application gets deployed, and if I want to update SQL statements, I could just update the statements in the file and just replace the file instead of redeploying the whole solution.
Thank you for your help.
I'm playing around with GHCi for the first time, and I'm having some trouble writing multi-line functions.
My code is as follows:
Prelude> :{
Prelude| let diffSquares lst = abs $ squareOfSums lst - sumOfSquares lst
Prelude| where
Prelude| squareOfSums lst = (fst (sumsAndSquares lst))^2
Prelude| sumOfSquares lst = snd (sumsAndSquares lst)
Prelude| sumsAndSquares = foldl (\(sms,sqrs) x -> (sms+x,sqrs+x^2)) (0,0)
Prelude| :}
It gives the following error:
<interactive>:1:142: parse error on input `='
Could someone kindly point me in the direction of what I'm missing?
I am writing a script to run under the korn shell on AIX. I'd like to use the mkdir command to create a directory. But the directory may already exist, in which case I don't want to do anything. So I want to either test to see that the directory doesn't exist, or suppress the "File exists" error that mkdir throws when it tries to create an existing directory.
Any thoughts on how best to do this?
