I'm getting started developing with OpenGL ES on ARM/Linux, and I would like to draw something full-screen but don't know where to start. I'm not developping on iPhone, nor Android. This is a Linux/OpenGL ES question. I know it's possible to draw on the framebuffer with OpenGL ES without any library but I don't find any resources about...
I have a script that records files with UTF8 encoded names. However the script's encoding / environment wasn't set up right, and it just recoded the raw bytes. I now have lots of lines in the file like this: .../My\ Folders/My\ r\303\266m/... So there are spaces in the filenames with \ and UTF8 encoded stuff like \303\266 (which is ö...
Hi, Accidentally I mixed up between 32Bit and 64Bit library files on my x86 embedded Linux system. I'm now trying to find out which .so-File could be the wrong one. Do you know any tool to analyze .so files? In my strace logs I found calls to fstat64(). Which .so-file contains the fstat() routine? Thanks ...
I want to write a C++ program to download files with HTTP. For the sake of learning I would like to implement multipart downloading in my program the way DownThemAll! does.

Hi, I'm a scientist who is quite comfortable with C for numerical computation, but I need some help with displaying the results. I want to be able to display a continuously updated bitmap in a window, which is calculated from realtime data.

This pertains to Linux kernel 2.6 TCP sockets. I am sending a large amount of data, say 300 MB, with a non-blocking send to another client who receives 8 MB at a time. After one 8 MB receive, the "receiver" stops receiving because it wants to perform other tasks, such as error handling. The sender would get a EWOULDBLOCK, but since ...
Hokay so I have an application where I need some IPC... I'm thinking named pipes are the way to go because they are so easy to use. Anyways, I have a question about how to handle dynamic memory using named pipes. Say I have a class such as this: class MyTestClass { public: MyTestClass() { _data = new int(4); } int GetData(...
My tomcat (running in linux/ubuntu) crashes sometimes with a thread dump appended to catalina.out. How do I get this thread dump into a separate log file? The thread dump is quite large due to the large number of threads running and therefore fills catalina.out making it hard to debug. ...
I have some data files from a legacy system that I would like to process using Awk. Each file consists of a list of records. There are several different record types and each record type has a different set of fixed-width fields (there is no field separator character). The first two characters of the record indicate the type, from thi...

I had been running Fedora 9 for the last year --- I have a Windows box (actually a VM) that mounts a folder on the Fedora box using my own name/password. I do this so that I can run my version control program (Vault) on Windows. It has worked flawlessly for the last 6 months. Yesterday, I upgraded Fedora from version 9 to version 11. Si...
I'm writing a C++ background/server application for Linux/Windows. Is there a standard control/profiling/reporting service I should use to expose my application's current status in a standardized way?
