http://unix.stackexchange.com – Scope Whenever an ebuild is sourced, the functions and variables within it are loaded into memory by the script interpreter. However, only variables and instructions that are not part of a function are interpreted - functions such as src_compile() are only executed by Portage when the ebuild has reached the compile stage. The code within these functions are considered in "local scope" while everything outside of the functions is in the "global scope" meaning they are executed every time the ebuild is sourced. An external application (such as grep, sed or awk) should never be called in globa (HowTos)

I am trying to create my own custom sound driver using ALSA. So far I have succeeded loading the module, by which I mean:

my probe function is executed the constructor is executed I see the interrupt being executed

I found this out by the dumps I placed in these functions.

I'm doing some raw socket scripting in C. Everything works fine.

However, I monitored the memory using top, and it shows that the memory used by my script is increasing over time.

I don't have that many mallocs (maybe a couple), but lots of pointers.

Understanding Functions 1 year 45 weeks ago

TweetFunctions A function can help you modularize your script.  Because the function is executed in the context of the same shell, it does not create a new child process, this makes functions faster...

Hello. I am new to this forum and I would like to ask for advice about low level POSIX programming.

I have to implement a POSIX compliant C shared library. A file will have some variables and the shared library will have some functions which need those variables. There is one special requirement, the access to the variables should be as quick as posible, which means that variables should be

I have a lot of aliases, functions, scripts, and keybindings, and it was getting hard to remember some of them.

Lens Development 41 weeks 2 days ago

I've used Quickly to create a lens that interacts with another program, when the program is executed using the following function:

def handle_uri(self, scope, uri): os.system(uri)

the dash is not closed on click....how do I remedy this?

Also is there a list of all the functions or built in "short cuts" for quickly?

I am building a Shared Library (.so) on Linux and I am compiling and linking in an object that is not dynamically linking in certain functions. These functions are "extern 'C'" functions. They are appearing in the normal symbol table of the shared object but not the external functions list or the dynamic functions list. I am compiling and linking using g++.

Good day!

I´m new to java and android apps. So I´ll try to be specific and make it all clear.

My goal is to develop a java version of my already existing MATLAB GUI. What my gui actually does for the most part is plotting mathematical functions upon a pair of x,y axes using 2d plotting functions.

I'm new to kernel and driver programming, so i hope my question is not too simple.

I'm working with a madwifi driver, in order to add some functionalities of my own.
