How to access a struct within a struct?

Can someone tell me how to do this? Just a thought that entered my mind when learning about structs. First thought was: struct one { struct two; } struct two { three; } one->two->three would this be how you would access "three"? (1 Reply)

Hi We are using a code generator for initializing structures with the #define macro. Compiling it with the GCC 2.8.1 (with -ansi) it OK. But when we are using the SUN C 5.0 compiler it screams. Following is a code sample: #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> typedef struct TEST3 {... (4 Replies)

openpty(3)						     Library Functions Manual							openpty(3)

NAME
openpty, forkpty - Open and fork pseudoterminals LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc.a) SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/termios.h> <sys/ioctl.h> int openpty( int *master, int *slave, char *name, struct termios *termp, struct winsize *winp); pid_t forkpty( int *master, char *name, struct termios *termp, struct winsize *winp); PARAMETERS
Points to the returned file descriptor for the master pseudoterminal (pty). Points to the returned file descriptor for the slave pty. Points to the pathname of the slave pty. This parameter is optional. Specifies the termios structure containing the terminal attributes for the opened slave pty. This parameter is optional. Specifies the winsize structure containing the window attributes for the opened slave pty. This parameter is optional. DESCRIPTION
The openpty() function opens the pty master/slave pair and sets the terminal attributes of the slave pseudoterminal according to the speci- fications in the termp and winp parameters. The forkpty() function creates a child process and establishes the slave pty as the child process' controlling terminal. The openpty() function will first attempt to open an SVR4 slave device, such as /dev/pts/11. If unsuccess- ful, it will attempt a BSD device, such as /dev/ttyp1. Note If a signal handler for SIGCHLD exists and the openpty() or forkpty() function is invoked without superuser privileges, the signal handler must be able to dismiss an unexpected SIGCHLD signal. RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the openpty() function returns a value of 0 (zero). Otherwise, it returns a value of -1. On success, the forkpty() function returns a value of 0 (zero) to the child process and returns the process ID of the child process to the parent process. On error, the forkpty() function returns a value of -1 to the parent process and does not create a child process. ERRORS
If any of the following conditions occurs, the openpty() function sets errno to the corresponding value: The slave pty special files have been exhausted. No more ptys can be opened. The configured number of ptys has been reached. The system limit for open file descriptors per process has already reached OPEN_MAX. The system limit for open file descriptors has been reached. [Tru64 UNIX] Either the OPEN_MAX value or the per-process soft descriptor limit is checked. The system file table is full. The system was unable to allocate kernel memory for more file descriptors/processes. The system-imposed limit on the total number of processes executing for a single user has been exceeded. This limit can be exceeded by a process with superuser privilege. RELATED INFORMATION
