i'm a Linux programming newbie. I developed several programs for Windows and i often use WaitForSingleObject and WaitForMultipleObjects in my programs. Is there a linux implementation of WaitForSingleObject and WaitForMultipleObjects? Or, how can i wait for multiple objects (event, semaphores, etc) ?
I think this is answered in the context of Linux (and QT), but you may
consider sticking with the Windows API and using the WINE library
directly. http://www.winehq.org/
Several commercial packages have used the WINE library to port their
products to Linux,
As far as QT is concerned, it is a more dynamic interface than Windows.
You register a function to be called when an event occurs. You do not
need to set up your own dispatcher. (If I recall from the last time I
wrote a Windows app, you had to determine what the event was and invoke
the appropriate function).
Also, you can write a QT based app and run it on Windows.
