Full Discussion: How to see actual filename that File Descriptor is pointing to for a given processID?
Operating Systems Solaris How to see actual filename that File Descriptor is pointing to for a given processID? Post 302479416 by DGPickett on Friday 10th of December 2010 03:26:49 PM

The files under /proc are imaginary, but the flat files have names that disclose their inode and device. If you cannot "find" a path name (there may be several links), then there are no links, which is to say it has been removed but is still open on one or more processes. For instance, tmpfile() does this so if your proc crashes, the file space is released. Then, your only clue to the original path is the inode contents or the fd # implying an order of opening.

DESCRIPTION

       glutSetCursor  changes  the cursor image of the current window.	Each call requests the window system change the cursor appropriately.  The
       cursor image when a window is created is GLUT_CURSOR_INHERIT. The exact cursor images used are implementation dependent. The intent is  for
       the image to convey the meaning of the cursor name. For a top-level window, GLUT_CURSOR_INHERIT uses the default window system cursor.

X IMPLEMENTATION NOTES

       GLUT for X uses SGI's _SGI_CROSSHAIR_CURSOR convention to access a full-screen cross-hair cursor if possible.
