Whats the difference between 32bit and 64bit OS's or applications. I understand it a little but its just not clicking the way the teacher explained to me
thanks, any info would be much appreciated (1 Reply)
when using the command :
cat /proc/cpuinfo I get some basic info back on the cpu..
but it doesn't tell me if I am using a 64 or 32 bit processor ..
a) is this the right command to find this ?
b) if it is not what is ? and how do I get that information..
thanx moxxx68 (2 Replies)
Where can I get a list that maps the each Linux version to corresponding 32/64 bits model?
e.g.
OS -> Model (ILP32, LP64, ...)
RHLE3 -> ?
RHLE4 -> ?
RHLE5 -> ?
...
It would be better if there is such a list that contains most of current UNIX OS versions.

i have solaris 10 x86 64bit installed on my pc (dell 3100). i then decided to move my hard drive to another pc (dell 4600). I noticed that each time i boot up, the OS show as 32 bit (instead of 64bit) and i can't even get past this stage to the login page.
when i moved it back to dell 3100 it... (13 Replies)
Not really a Unix question as such :o, but what advantages or disadvantages are there between using 32bit or 64bit applications on a T5220 running Solaris 10? What about mixing them e.g. 64 bit app using 32 bit libraries or vice versa? (1 Reply)
I have an application which builds and executes without error on a 32bit implementation of Linux. When I transferred the code to a new project on a 64bit implementation, the code will build without error, but the pthread functions, such as pthread_attr_setschedparam() return an 'Invalid Argument'...

Hi Gurus,
I need to check whether the compiler installed in my system supports 64bit compilation.
Server - Sun fire v490
OS - Solaris 5.9
Processor - Sparcv9 (64bit)
Install Directory - /opt/SUNWSpro
Compiler Model - Sun Forte C Compiler.
My development team is claiming that there... (20 Replies)
Hi,
I have a C code which builds and works fine on 32bit linux machine.
Now i want to convert that code to build and run on 64 bit linux machine. I dont want to maintain two separate sources for 32 and 64 bit build. Same source should get build on 32 as well as 64 bit machine (when a... (2 Replies)
Hello, I am trying to use a worktool on SLES 10 (32-bit) and it is saying I do not have libcap.so.2:
error while loading shared libraries: libcap.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Is there an easy way for me to install this library? A quick Google search... (4 Replies)

tk_main
Tk_Main(3) Tk Library Procedures Tk_Main(3)__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________NAME
Tk_Main - main program for Tk-based applications
SYNOPSIS
#include <tk.h>
Tk_Main(argc, argv, appInitProc)
ARGUMENTS
int argc (in) Number of elements in argv.
char *argv[] (in) Array of strings containing command-line arguments.
Tcl_AppInitProc *appInitProc (in) Address of an application-specific initialization procedure. The value for this argument is
usually Tcl_AppInit.
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
Tk_Main acts as the main program for most Tk-based applications. Starting with Tk 4.0 it is not called main anymore because it is part of
the Tk library and having a function main in a library (particularly a shared library) causes problems on many systems. Having main in the
Tk library would also make it hard to use Tk in C++ programs, since C++ programs must have special C++ main functions.
Normally each application contains a small main function that does nothing but invoke Tk_Main. Tk_Main then does all the work of creating
and running a wish-like application.
When it is has finished its own initialization, but before it processes commands, Tk_Main calls the procedure given by the appInitProc
argument. This procedure provides a "hook" for the application to perform its own initialization, such as defining application-specific
commands. The procedure must have an interface that matches the type Tcl_AppInitProc:
typedef int Tcl_AppInitProc(Tcl_Interp *interp);
AppInitProc is almost always a pointer to Tcl_AppInit; for more details on this procedure, see the documentation for Tcl_AppInit.
