I created this application that contains several binary files (let's say X, Y and Z). I have a .plist file that specifies that the application should launch X when opened. Everything works fine 99.9% of the time but sometimes, it launches another binary (Y or Z). This usually happens after something crashed in my application so I am gue...
I've got process running that can't be killes. It's my EyeTV App and here is what 'ps aux' says: cb0 87583 1,0 3,4 812796 144236 ?? UE 21Nov09 2638:11.45 [.....]/EyeTV The process state is really strange cause I've never seen UE before. The manpage tells me U means Marks a process in uninterruptible wait, and E mea...
I need to access the elapsed time since startup in nanoseconds from a Python program running on Mac OS X 10.6. I use the following Carbon calls to get this in C code: AbsoluteTime uptimeAbs = AbsoluteToNanoseconds(UpTime()); uint64_t elapsedTime = ((uint64_t)uptimeAbs.hi << 32) + uptimeAbs.lo; Is it possible to get to these functions...
hi, i'd like to be able to call the same shell command on the marked files in dired without the need for emacs to prompt the command input as the command will always be the same. in particular, the command is "open" (for mac os x). i tried to hack the function dired-do-shell-command in dired-aux.el but i don't understand the interacti...

We are using Passenger locally on Mac OS X for development. I switched to conservative spawn mode to try to debug a problem with the MongoDB ruby driver. However, after I did this, Passenger can no longer find my gems. I get the application failed to start page with this message: Missing these required gems: aws-s3 >= 0.6.2 ruby-u...
I made a silly mistake of upgrading Leopard a tad too soon. I thought I dumped my mysql files but the last backup is about a month old. Now I upgraded the computer to Snow Leopard, and trying to run the old mysql server wasn't happening. So I read you must reinstall mysql with a newer version which I did and it ran just fine and starts...
I would like to offer tutorial text that changes depending on the number of mouse buttons available. For example, if there are two mouse buttons the text would say "Right click" whereas if there's only 1 button the text would say "Ctrl+click". Is there any API in Cocoa or Carbon that can identify the number of available buttons on the ...
I'm running MacOS 10.6 with the default settings for my machine with Internet Sharing turned on. What needs to be configured to allow access to my machine's grails/jetty instance on a specific port? I can do 'http://localhost/' as well as 'http://192.x.x.x/' but if I were to set my grails app to run on a specific port, I can't access ...

This error usually means your Python interpreter doesn't support the locale set by $LANG (en_US.UTF-8) Continuing with ascii encoding. ...

I am receiving this error when I try to use git lately. I'm not exactly sure when the error started as I rarely use git. I used to use it. I didn't change anything about it or my machine that I know of. Now it doesn't work. I've gone through and reinstalled the latest version using this installer, and I still get the same error in te...
I have an assignment in class that requires us to use POSIX threads and create n*(n-1)/2 of them to process a dataset of n elements. You can think of it as basically the classical "handshake" in probability. I know that for a large data set it's going to make the application CPU-bound and eventually it will spend so much time context s...
I'm using a trial of Cornerstone and like the product but don't like the fact they have no support. Meaning, they never answer their email. I need a source control program that can handle merging through Subversion. Specifically, merging from a branch back into trunk. Cornerstone doesn't and from what I've read Versions doesn't eithe...
