How to call a proc file from *.c program?
Hi,
I am new to Linux programming. As part of learning, I need to create a *.c program where we call certain /proc files (i.e. such as meminfo, version, uptime, etc...) from our program. Can anyone point me to a simple program on how one would do this (i.e. can you directly call uptime() or ... straight from my program - I would be very surprised if one could)?
Thanks,
Pat//
