In the past I have had problems upgrading from release to release of Eclipse. I was wondering how the Eclipse users on StackOverflow dealt with upgrading from release to release of Eclipse. Is using a Distro the solution? Staying on a past release point until you are forced forward, a good idea? Lately I have just reloaded from scrat...
I have written a C++ class that I need to share an instance of between at least two windows processes. What are the various ways to do this? Initially I looked into #pragma data_seg only to be disappointed when I realised that it will not work on classes or with anything that allocates on the heap. The instance of the class must be acc...
I'm currently using Quartz Scheduler as a replacement for Cron on our Windows 2003 Server Box. I have two specific Jobs that needed to be started in a new VM, so I'm using the ProcessBuilder object in Java 5 to get my "Process" object. The problem I'm running into is when our Quartz Scheduler JVM stops, the 2 jobs in separate JVM's kee...

I have seen a lot of companies buy into the Agile/Scrum process and basically use it for every project, regardless of what it is. When is Scrum not appropriate and can cause more harm than good (generally speaking)? ...
When you are deciding on what methodology or process to use for your project, should you take into account the human factors? If there is any resistance to things, do you go with the flow or force people to change? For example, say you want to push for pair programming but the team members resist to working in that mode (or show dislike...

What would you use to: start a process that handles a file (process.StartInfo.FileName = fileName;) wait for the user to close the process OR abandon the thread after some time if the user closed the process, delete the file Starting the process and waiting should be done on a different thread t...
I'm a newbie at this so please forgive me for my ignorance. Separating different parts of a program into different processes seems (to me) to make a more elegant program then just threading everything. In what scenario would it make sense to make things run on a thread vs separating the program into different processes? When should I ...

ps axuw| grep mysql indicates only mysql process but if I run htop I can see 10 rows each one of them with a separate PID. So I wonder if they are threads or processes that for some reason I cannot see using ps. Would it make any sense to try to limit them to 2 on my development machine where I don't need concurrent access of many clien...
During my application setup, the user has the option of installing a new SQL Server Express 2005 instance in the local machine if they don't want to use an already existing SQL Server 2005 in their network for whatever reason. As the SQL Server installation is optional, I don't have it as a prerequisite of my installer. Instead, I just ...

I have a service, say foo, written in C++, that runs as root. There is the usual scrip, /etc/init.d/foo start|stop|restart. At certain times, foo needs to reload itself. Normally after an upgrade has finished. But doing things like: system("/etc/init.d/foo restart") doesn't work since as soon as restart kills foo, the system() cal...
Hi, how can I get information on the state of a process (i.e. if it is a zombie) using C under Linux? After reading the answers so far I want to narrow my question somewhat: I would prefer a pure C solution. After reading the ps source (which reads /proc/) I thought that there should be a better way and asked here :) ...
