That's exactly what I needed! Thanks, I don't know why I didn't think of that, I was totally over complicating it.

OK, so what I'm doing right now is creating a function that callocs (I prefer this to malloc) and returns a string, and it will work similar to printf, I'm calling the function alloCpy(), the idea is...

I guess I could always just use UML to plan my code, just pretend the symbols mean something different, of course it would confuse anyone else who tried to contribute to my project...

UML actually looks like the type of thing that would help me stay organized, I admit I am getting better at keeping my code organized as just code, and a task list does help, but having a UML type...

Preferably I'd like some kind of software that will help me organize my code, but also, I'm not even sure what this would be called, is it a blueprint? Roadmap?

I have yet another question for these forums, what is the best way to plan/organize a program, like blueprints or a storyboard, only for programming? Right now I've just been using Wunderlist to keep...

Well, I discovered my issue was actually in the grid layout that I used to place everything in the window, which I don't think I mentioned before, I changed the GtkGrid to a GtkBox with a vertical...

Well, looking through Rhythmbox's source didn't exactly help, the way they've written it is either scattered, or just way above my level, it's to hard to find how they put together the treeviews, so...

I was thinking of looking through Rhythmbox's source, see if I can figure out how they implement it, and I like c99tutorial's idea too. And yeah, I've looked through all the available demos for...

I know this forum doesn't specialize in GTK, or any specific gui tool kit for that matter, however, this is the best forum I can find when it comes to actually getting answers, I already posted...

This is right, I actually just figured it out after looking at some other examples and playing with my code, well, the only thing I needed to add was "text", not (void *), NULL works just fine, in...

I'm working on an app in C with GTK 3, the issue I'm having is my treeviews have blank items, the treeviews get filled, but I can't see any text, it's just a bunch of blank items I can select. I...

Libarchive is definately going to be a winner, and the github page has decent documentation and examples so I know I can learn it, however, I can't find anywhere what header files to include to use...

You know, now that I've been looking more at libarchive, it actually looks like it does support read and write, it someone just needs to update the description of it, and it looks pretty easy to...

libarchive seems like a pretty good choice, especially because it's redily available on Linux, and right in the Ubuntu repositories, that works for me because I'm writing an app for Linux. The only...

What is the simplest way to extract from archives, and create archives, I need to be able to support 7z, zip, and rar files, and I really don't need to do anything complicated, just list the files...

I know about changing sockets to non-blocking mode, but I don't know about that in ncurses or how to do it, will it allow me to get active input from the user in the input screen, while having the...

I'm working on a chat app, I'm using ncurses, I create 3 screens with ncurses, an input screen to type in the input, a message screen to display the messages, and a screen to list all the logged on...

Thank you, you helped me figure out my problem, here's the relavant lines of my makefile now:


myapp: main.o config.o gui.o library.o
gcc main.o config.o gui.o library.o -o ../myapp...

I already understand that about stat, the way I'm using it now is temporary, right now I'm just trying to get xmlwriter to work, and the problem is not in stat. Also I have read the documentation...

I forgot to include this part in my post, but I already have the compiling argument for libxml2, it's `xml2-config --cflags --libs`, the section in my makefile is:


library.o: library.c...

I should also note the STAT is in my globalvars.h file, incase anyone noticed that

I am trying to use libxml2 to create a library file, I am on Ubuntu so libxml2 is preinstalled. I am trying to use xmlwriter.h to create the file, if I use the example testwriter program I can...

Thanks, I don't know why I was so obsessed with trying to make it const, I just did it like you showed and it works fine.

I am trying to create a global const char array to store the users home directory, well, plus some other text, here is an example of what I'm trying to do:



const char configdir[] =...
