Gentlemen,
OK, I have an odd issue here perhaps someone can shed some light for me. When running a script as its user/owner the below pause/wait works just fine. When a developer has used su - to assume the username the pause does not happen... This is a HPUX11.00 machine, I have copied the blurb... (1 Reply)
Hi,
I have one doubt, in the below program, if I declare char *b inside the main(), the function compiles & runs properly. But at the same time, if I declare it globally it compiles but when we run it, it creates core dump (segmentation fault) both in C & C++. It is not being trapped by catch... (7 Replies)

I am little bit confused by the behaviour of rm in Ubuntu.
It seems that as a regular user I can delete files owned by another user even when the permissions are set to 644.
Here is an example:

Hi Experts,
ps command behavior in Redhat is such that it outputs all the output(of long lengths). In Unix the ps command output was limited to only 80 chars. In that if you pipe its output to another command hen the 80 chars restriction wouldn't be there. This 80 char limitation will only be... (14 Replies)

pthread_cond_broadcast
pthread_cond_signal(3T)pthread_cond_signal(3T)NAME
pthread_cond_signal(), pthread_cond_broadcast() - unblock one or all threads waiting on a condition variable
SYNOPSIS PARAMETERS
cond Pointer to the condition variable to be signaled or broadcast.
DESCRIPTION
The function is used to wake-up one of the threads that are waiting for the occurrence of a condition associated with condition variable
cond. If there are no threads blocked on cond, this function has no effect. If more than one thread is blocked on cond, the scheduling
policy determines which thread is unblocked. It is possible that more than one thread can be unblocked due to a spurious wakeup.
The function is used to wake-up all threads that are waiting for the occurrence of a condition associated with the condition variable cond.
If there are no threads blocked on cond, this function has no effect. If more than one thread is blocked on cond, the scheduling policy
determines the order in which threads are unblocked.
The condition variabled denoted by cond must have been dynamically initialized by a call to or statically initialized with the macro
An unblocked thread will reacquire the mutex it held when it started the condition wait before returning from or The threads that are
unblocked contend for the mutex according to their scheduling policy and priority.
The or functions can be called by a thread whether or not it currently owns the condition variable's associated mutex. For predictable
scheduling behavior and to prevent lost wake-ups, the mutex should be held when signaling a condition variable.
Usage
When using condition variables, there is a boolean predicate associated with each condition wait. If this predicate is false, the thread
should do a condition wait. Spurious wakeups may occur when waiting on a condition variable. Because the return values from and do not
imply anything about the value of this predicate, the predicate should always be re-evaluated.
Applications using condition variables typically acquire a mutex and enter a loop which checks the predicate. Depending on the value of
the predicate, the thread either breaks out of the loop or waits on the condition. On return from the condition wait, the predicate is re-
evaluated.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, and return zero. Otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error (the variable is not set).
ERRORS
For each of the following conditions, if the condition is detected, the and functions return the corresponding error number:
[EINVAL] cond is not a valid condition variable.
[EFAULT] cond parameter points to an illegal address.
