pfm_inhibit(3ncs)pfm_inhibit(3ncs)Name
pfm_inhibit - inhibit asynchronous faults
Syntax
#include <idl/c/base.h>
#include <idl/c/pfm.h>
void pfm_$inhibit()
Description
The routine prevents asynchronous faults from being passed to the calling process. While faults are inhibited, the operating system holds
at most one asynchronous fault. Consequently, a call to can result in the loss of some signals. It is good practice to inhibit faults
only when absolutely necessary. This routine has no effect on the processing of synchronous faults such as floating-point and overflow
exceptions, access violations, and so on.

socket_family_from_name - convert an address family name to an integer
Syntax
#include <idl/c/socket.h>
unsigned long socket_$family_from_name(name, nlength, status)
socket_$string_t name;
unsigned long nlength;
status_$t *status;
Arguments
name The textual name of an address family. Currently, only ip is supported.
nlength The length, in bytes, of name.
status The completion status. If the completion status returned in is equal to status_$ok , then the routine that supplied it
was successful.
Description
The routine returns the integer representation of the address family specified in the text string name.
Examples
The server program for the banks example, accepts a textual family name as its first argument. The program uses the following routine to
convert this name to the corresponding integer representation:
family = socket_$family_from_name
(argv[1], (long)strlen(argv[1]), &status);

We have quite a few threads about this subject. I have collected some of them and arranged them by the OS which is primarily discussed in the thread. That is because the exact procedure depends on the OS involved. What's more, since you often need to interact with the boot process, the... (0 Replies)
I'm writing a command shell, and I want to be able to detect when the user presses an arrow key (otherwise it just prints [[A, [[B, etc.). I know it's relatively easy (although somewhat more time-consuming) to detect keystrokes in noncanonical mode, but I've noticed that the bash shell detects... (4 Replies)
I'm learning off Linux (Ubuntu) right now. I want to move up to Unix, but I don't want to rush like I did when it came to Windows --> to Linux. What is the best Unix OS that fits in pretty well with Ubuntu.
In other words is there kind of an equal Linux with Unix?
Also what do I need to... (10 Replies)
I noticed my hostname is <my-full-name>s-macbook.local. I'm not sure exactly what information leaves the local network, and whether the hostname is included, but if it is, this would mean people on the Internet can look at my hostname and see who I am. Before anyone says that's not possible,... (4 Replies)
