If you're using standard C, the bitwise operators are required to operate as if the data they were handling was big-endian, regardless of what the underlying platform actually supp…

<strong>This is all on x86. Or maybe it was more data that was swapped (bytes over bits), I cant remember now. But I am almost positive it had nothing to do with the directio…

Sorry for being unclear - I was trying to get the point across without giving a comp-sci lecture What you say is absolutely correct. Just out of curiousity, does anyone know w…

I think you have to be in supervisor mode and of course use assembly code to do the switch. Then I suppose you'd have to switch back if you want to use any system calls. Sounds lik…

Why don't you just write some simple byte swapping functions? I don't think it is possible for Apple hardware to run in little endian mode (although I may be wrong) because various…

Okay, so I found this very basic regular math expression parser, and it works great!... except that if you enter an expression long enough (about 25 characters in length) it dies. …

Excellent. Thank you so much! My C knowledge just grew F-bacher

Trying to get libmpeg2 working on OS X.... Everthing compiles fine (after my tweaking for CC instead of gcc) but I get this in the linker: /bin/sh ../libtool --mode=link cc -g …

A link error means that there is a line of code that is making reference to a symbol (it can be a variable, or function, etc), that has not been defined. In this case, it looks li…

Yeah, I got it... actually got it figured out... they were being cut off by the preprocessor... figures I got the stuff off of sourceforge... after every revision, it's like... IT'…

I'd like to make a very simple command-line tool that can: 1. Set/read the monitor brightness (the actual lamp, not a ColorSync thing) 2. Set/read the system volume -- Nevermind, f…

See either CoreGraphics.framework or IOKit.framework, methinks.

Sorry, other than a cryptically named constant, all my best grepping and handreading through those frameworks and others hasn't turned up an obvious API for monitor brightness. An…

Woah, blast from the past. Incidentally, I ended up just setting the monitor gamma to zero, which turns the screen black, without actually changing the monitor brightness. This t…

Well I really want to adjust brightness using software, as I try to write an application that sets the brightness when the battery status change. Yes it is a recovered topic, I di…

I've noticed questions floating around about IDE's. I've played with a whole bunch of them. I've also contacted various companies with questions. CodeWarrior e-mail date - 2/28/…
