I'd like to make a snapshot of a live filesystem in Linux, preferably using LVM. I'd like not to unmount it because I've got lots of files opened (my most common scenario is that I've got a busy desktop with lots of programs). I understand that because of kernel buffers and general filesystem activity, data on disk might be in some more...
I have written a C++ library that saves my data (a collection of custom structs etc) into a binary file. I currently use (i.e. CREATE and CONSUME) the files locally, on my Windows (XP) machine. For simplicity, lets think of the library in two parts: a WRITER (Creates the files) and a READER or CONSUMER (simply reads data from the files)....
Consider a sparse file with 1s written to a portion of the file. I want to reclaim the actual space on disk for these 1s as I no longer need that portion of the sparse file. The portion of the file containing these 1s should become a "hole" as it was before the 1s were themselves written. To do this, I cleared the region to 0s. This d...

I've been using Eclipse for about a week now and I'm loving it.. great software for the 'price'. :P However, I'm having a few issues getting started. The most annoying, so far, has been opening files from outside of Eclipse, and having them set to open w/ Eclipse. When I open a file from the file-explorer or an external application (Win...
Hi, I'm trying to create, a fast and somewhat intelligent file copy algorithm (in c# but platform independent). My goals: I don't want to use any platform specific code (no pinvokes or anything) I'd like to take advantage of multiple cores but this seems stupid since doing simultaneous reads/writes would seem slower right? (correct ...
Hello, Let's say my application creates, stores and retrieves a very large amount of entries (tens of millions). Each entry has variable number of different data (for example, some entries have only a few bytes such as ID/title, while some may have megabytes of supplementary data). Basic structure of each entry is same and is in XML for...
