For child processes, the wait() and waitpid() functions can be used to suspends execution of the current process until a child has exited. But this function can not be used for non-child processes.

Hi Guys,
A question if I may.
Lets suppose that my main thread creates 3 threads.
These 3 threads call wait() on a certain object.
Then the main thread calls notifyAll() for the same object.
How can I ensure than thread2, and only thread2, proceeds while thread1 and thread3 simply ignore the notification and go back to waiting state?

top.frames[1].location.href = 'http://some_location.com/page.html';
and then performs actions on that page, for example searching text within the page. I need the script to wait until page.html has loaded in the second frame before doing...

I do the following:
Copy an executable to C:\temp\x.exe
Start the executable with System.Diagnostics.Process.Start and then wait for the process to exit, synchronously, by calling WaitForExit on the Process object returned by Start.

On some machines, this works great, but on others, the call to Del...

After making a tcp connection to a server, I close my linux application and Socket.close() is called.
Checking netstat -pant, I see the connection is in TIME_WAIT status.
This prevents me from making an immediate connection back to the server since I'm using the same port to connect from. Instead, I have to wait for the conne...

Every Java Object has the methods wait() and notify() (and additional variants). I have never used these and I suspect many others haven't. Why are these so fundamental that every object has to have them and is there a performance hit in having them (presumably some state is stored in them)?
EDIT to emphasize the question. If I have a ...
