*** SOLVED ***

Just putting a simple timeout(3000) right before the ch = getch() seems to have solved it.

From timeout(3): curses input options - Linux man page:

The timeout and wtimeout...

I'm trying to get my program to exit when ctrl-c is pressed or the window close button is activated, but before the program exits, it needs to run a function. In the original program, it's a function...

The program below monitors mouse clicks and location. It recognizes when a user is swiping from the very left of the screen towards the center, and it's meant to be used on a touch device—in my case,...

Thanks. I did a little reading on char pointers, and it makes much more sense now. :)

I am trying to take an array of char, pass it to a void function by point (mainly, I don't want that array to be copied), manipulate/add to it, and leave the function but with the array holding its...

The issue was that I didn't completely understand this and how to deal with it.

I did get the issue fixed by bumping into this tutorial: POSIX Threads Programming

Here is the fixed code:

The program seems to work as intended, but I'm getting this error when compiling:


$ gcc -O2 -Wall bar.c -o bar -lpthread -lX11 -L/usr/include/curl/lib -lcurl

bar.c: In function ‘main’:...

You're welcome. :)

Updated code is below for anyone interested. I got everything working great using the xtest library! ;)

This code works on my Raspberry Pi 3b+ and will likely work on other Linux-based systems. It...

I am trying to pass a file to a function. The file is /proc/stat, and the CPU portion works fine. This is just a small part of another file, broken down for help. It is run every second, and I'd...

So, if I've gathered correctly, a const, so long as it is not being taken as a reference, or pointer, or some type of situation forcing it to give its location in memory, is pretty much the same as...

There seems to be so many ways in C++ to define a variable...

I would like to define some constant variables at compile time such that there will be no run-time penalty. In other words, I don't...

I read in a post that the library I was using to make clicks was not completely made for what I was using it for. People were saying to use the XTest library.

I did such, and, as it seems for now,...

Sorry for the late response. I am a little burnt out after plugging away for 6 hours trying to make a C++ curl library not cause memory leaks... but I wanted to respond to say that I am still here...

First post! :D

The code below is made and run on my Raspberry Pi 3b+. It is made for use on a touchscreen, and it detects when the user is holding the left mouse button down (or pressing the touch...
