I used to do this in C all time by leveraging how files and the keyword "static" are used. Like many before me, in some ways, I invented a this pointer without realizing it! And here's the thing: sometimes I even do something similar with C++, though it can usually be slightly more elegant. Most recently, I did something similar with a Win32 DLL that had a straight C interface (so it could be called from .NET.)

Or it may depend on vendor to vendor?

Can't say I am a total expert here, but I would think that this is one aspect that may vary from vendor to vendor depending on their power saving and start up speed requirements really. Just a guess but I would check it out. LinkedIn[^] | Blog[^] | Twitter[^]

Writing Window Manager for Linux is a very big project. It is not going to be a mini project, it is a life time project. To write a Window Manager you will need to understand Linux at the lower level, you will need to read about Linux kernel, system calls, X-server and many other things. You cannot use Qt, KDevelop, GTK or any other library because they assume that a Window Manager is already running. If this is only for learning then I will suggest that you write a program in top of an existing Window Manager and you can use Qt for that purpose. This means that your GUI manager will be an application in an existing window manager. -Saurabh modified on Sunday, April 25, 2010 9:39 PM

I have got the solution for your problem. when you type cat /usr/include/sys/msg.h you can see that the struct is commented out when __USE_GNU is not defined. /usr/include/sys/msg.h: #ifdef __USE_GNU /* Template for struct to be used as argument for `msgsnd' and `msgrcv'. */ struct msgbuf { long int mtype; /* type of received/sent message */ char mtext[1]; /* text of the message */ }; #endif A bit of Googeling brings the result that you should #define _GNU_SOURCE to use that struct. It is important to define it before you #include <sys/msg.h>. I hope i helped. greetings 0xeffe TLDR solution: #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <sys/msg.h>

Thanks for correcting. I would have mentioned "defining". :)

while(ch = getchar() != EOF) should be while((ch = getchar()) != EOF) The assignment operator has lowest precedence of all in C.

Happy to help.

Hiiii.... I tried with const UINT64 ui_offset = 1000000; LONGLONG ll_array[ui_offset]; It works properly... Thanking you......

hiiii.... The situation to post the above messasge was.... After reading the sentence form Wikipedia "Copy the file system that holds the files in question to another location.This usually involves unmounting the file system and running a program like dump"..... And I know dump is row data copy process... Snapshot is a image of file system structure(when it takes). And I understand the dump image contains full data and snapshot image contains only addresses and pointers to the data. Anyway thanks for the reply... With regards ------------ ;P ;P ;P

I tried with Google.. And some results says " try to copy encrypted files"" And some other says " Mal ware affected the system" I formatted the system..Then my program works properly Thanking u

You should really read this article[^], it will help you a lot understanding what you are doing wrong with your code. Basically, you should avoid these kind of conversions unless there is absolutely no other way. In your case, you can perfectly go without conversion. Your application is probably built for unicode support, so you should support that throughout your app: - use wstring if UNICODE is enabled by using your own string type everywhere in your app: #if defined _UNICODE || defined UNICODE typedef std::wstring TMyString; #else typedef std::string TMyString; #endif - instead of using _findfirsti64, you should use the unicode independant version (_tfindfirsti64). You should have a look at the documentation for all those functions, there is always a table with the different versions. But anyway, first thing to do is to read the article :) Cédric Moonen Software developer Charting control [v2.0] OpenGL game tutorial in C++
