Problems for using videodev2 header
by Antonio Beamud Montero 31 May '04

31 May '04

Hi all: This is my first e-mail to this list. I have a problem with Suse 9.0 to compile nvrec. Nvrec uses a v4l2_buffer, but in the headers inside /usr/include/linux/videodev2.h this definition is inside an if __KERNEL__, and the compilation give me errors like: v4l2_core.c:70: error: field `cbuf' has incomplete type In Debian compiles ok, because the declaration of v4l2_buffer is not conditionally defined by __KERNEL__. How I can use this declaration...? Thanks. -- Antonio Beamud Montero <antonio.beamud(a)linkend.com> JID: farruquit0(a)jabber.org

Why I find autotools confusing.
by Steven T. Hatton 28 May '04

28 May '04

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 A while back I told people that I find using autotools to be confusing. I've been looking at the documentation of the latest versions and have concluded that the reason I don't understand the documentation is because the documents are inconsistent, at least when used as references. Compare the following two excerpts: This is from autoconf.info: To encourage consistency, here is a suggested order for calling the Autoconf macros. Generally speaking, the things near the end of this list are those that could depend on things earlier in it. For example, library functions could be affected by types and libraries. Autoconf requirements `AC_INIT(PACKAGE, VERSION, BUG-REPORT-ADDRESS)' information on the package checks for programs checks for libraries checks for header files checks for types checks for structures checks for compiler characteristics checks for library functions checks for system services `AC_CONFIG_FILES([FILE...])' `AC_OUTPUT' This is from automake.info: The first step is to update your `configure.ac' to include the commands that `automake' needs. The way to do this is to add an `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE' call just after `AC_INIT': AC_INIT(zardoz, 1.0) AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE This is from a working autoconf.ac # -*- Autoconf -*- # Process this file with autoconf to produce a configure script. AC_PREREQ(2.59) AC_INIT(src/main.cpp) AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(rematrix, 1.0, hattons(a)globalsymmetry.com) AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR([src]) AC_CONFIG_HEADER([config.h]) # Checks for programs. AC_PROG_CXX AC_PROG_CC # Checks for libraries. # Checks for header files. # Checks for typedefs, structures, and compiler characteristics. AC_HEADER_STDBOOL AC_C_CONST AC_C_INLINE AC_TYPE_SIZE_T # Checks for library functions. AC_OUTPUT([Makefile src/Makefile]) The examples found in http://sources.redhat.com/autobook/ did not work (were out of date?) when I tried to use the book to get started. I'm now to the point where I can produce a basic gnu gnits build setup for simple programs, but it's been trial and error (as well as some very helpful guidance from people on this list). Other than simply venting my frustrations, my purpose in posting this is to ask others how they would approach learning how to use these tools. Perhaps the answer is still the Goat Book. It seems a shame to see the book has not been maintained. - -- Regards, Steven -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAtzqqwX61+IL0QsMRAhxYAJ4uX7zoByNhGcDZqD555H4JbedUhgCfVU5V ZzED9r4iHrUSkM/4mJA2pFA= =1pvP -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

An error occurred while accessing the database
by Prabu Subroto 26 May '04

26 May '04

Dear my friends... I move forward to getting to know more about qt in database application development. I tried to make a very simple database application qith QTable. I have made the database connection successfully. I found no error. If I click on "connect" it can connect successfully because the connection name move to the left hand column. The documentation in help menu said it is so. Compiled successfully. but if I run the compiled code, i found this error message as a prompt window comes: " An error occurred while accessing the database ". And the error message on the linux console where I executed "./book" are under below: " patrixlinux@patrix:~/arsip/proyek/qt/book> ./book QSqlCursor::setName: unable to build record, does 'author' exist? QSqlRecord::field: index out of range: 0 QSqlRecord::position: unable to find field forename QSqlRecord::field: index out of range: -1 QSqlRecord::field: index out of range: 1 QSqlRecord::position: unable to find field surname QSqlRecord::field: index out of range: -1 QSqlCursor::setName: unable to build record, does 'author' exist? patrixlinux@patrix:~/arsip/proyek/qt/book> " the author table really exists. should do choosing the database name as I do usually on PHP+MySQL ( mysql_select_db("192.168.23.21","patrix", "perjaka"); )? I have tested to connect to my mysql server with the same hostname, username and password and it's OK. I also can do select query. I did testing with mysql-client (mysql -h 192.168.23.21 -u patrix -p) Please tell me where my mistake.

Dear my friends... I want to develop a database application with qt and MySQL. I begin from a very simple application, only selecting (query : select * from book) a table. Compiling succeeded.

Help with using Ncurses and C++
by Charley 24 May '04

24 May '04

Hello, I have just spend the last few hours researching on both the list archives and using google without much success. I am looking at moving a project from a real-time (sort of) version of Windows NT to run under SuSE Linux 9.1. >From the OS perspective everything looks good, however one small subject is messing me up. Most of the code is written in C, compiled under C++ and it is our intention to rewrite to OO type C++. And while this also is pretty straight forward we are stumbling on a small problem. Most of the time the system runs with little input from the users, however there are quite a few setup screens that need to be on terminal type screens. We are using QT for the more complex setup screens but need to use Ncurses for the runtime stuff. Has anyone had an experience using Ncurses in a C++ class type programming? I have found quite a few wrappers and such but all seem to have been dropped around late 2000 or in one case 2003. What are people actually using for this type of development? Would appreciate any help you could give and if you have a better suggestion would appreciate that as well. Thanks for your time, Charley

Compiling problem

14 May '04

Dear SuSE Programmers, I am trying to compile the Bulk Synchronous Parallel lib (BSPlib for short), which you can download from http://www.bsp-worldwide.org/implmnts/oxtool/ on SuSE version 9.1, but the compilation aborts with a somewhat strange error with the MSG_WAITALL declaration on the /usr/include/bits/socket.h at line 194. Here is the complete error log: In file included from /usr/include/sys/socket.h:35, from ../library_now/bsploadfuns.h:31, from bsploadfuns.c:20: /usr/include/bits/socket.h:194: error: parse error before numeric constant bsploadfuns.c: In function `lookup_remote_load_recv': bsploadfuns.c:124: error: `MSG_WAITALL' undeclared (first use in this function) bsploadfuns.c:124: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once bsploadfuns.c:124: error: for each function it appears in.) bsploadfuns.c: In function `bspnow_isin_topp_globalload': bsploadfuns.c:698: error: `MSG_WAITALL' undeclared (first use in this function) I looked at the /usr/include/bits/socket.h on all my Linux boxes (with Red Hat, SuSE and Debian) and they look the same.
