I have to implement a POSIX compliant C shared library.
A file will have some variables and the shared library will have some functions which need those variables.
There is one special... (5 Replies)

I am writing a shared library in Linux (but compatible with other UNIXes) and I want to allow multiple instances to share a piece of memory -- 1 byte is enough. What's the "best" way to do this? I want to optimize for speed and portability.
Obviously, I'll have to worry about mutual exclusion. (0 Replies)

I need to create a shared library to access an in memory DB. The DB is not huge, but big enough to make it cumbersome to carry around in every single process using the shared library. Luckily, it is pretty static information, so I don't need to worry much about synchronizing the data between... (12 Replies)

Hi, there
On HP-UX, there is a problem about shared memory. The code open the data file and use the "mmap" system call to map into the shared memory, when the contents are make changes, there is no effective on shared memory. The codes look like the following:

I am running HP-UX B.11.11.
I'm increasing a parameter for a database engine so that it uses more memory to buffer the disk drive (to speed up performance). I have over 5GB of memory not being used.
But when I try to start the DB with the increased buffer parameter I get told.

SHMIDCAT(1) Shared Memory Trampoline SHMIDCAT(1)
NAME
shmidcat - Copies stdin/file to a shared memory block for gtkwave(1)
SYNTAX
shmidcat [VCDFILE]
DESCRIPTION
Copies either the file specified at the command line or stdin (if no file specified) line by line to a shared memory block. stdout will
contain a shared memory ID which should be passed on to gtkwave(1).
EXAMPLES
To run this program the standard way type:
cat whatever.vcd | shmidcat
The shared memory ID is emitted to stdout.
shmidcat whatever.vcd | gtkwave -v -I whatever.sav
GTKWave directly grabs the ID from stdin.
LIMITATIONS
This program is mainly for illustrative and testing purposes only. Its primary use is for people who wish to write interactive VCD dumpers
for gtkwave(1) as its source code may be examined, particularly the emit_string() function. It can also be used to test if an existing VCD
file will load properly in interactive mode. Note that it can also be used to redirect VCD files which are written into a pipe to gtk-
wave(1) in a non-blocking fashion.
