DELETE CASCADE posted:imo a systems language is one where you can take a network packet or some other bit of raw data that comes in a string, define a struct that says what the bits and bytes represent (eg first 4 bytes are a number, next 2 bytes are some enum code, then a bitfield of flags, etc.), and just plain cast the string to the struct and start manipulating its fields There are languages where you can't??

twm obviously unless someone has finally fixed olwm and the XView API to work nicely on 64-bit systems, then use it XView apparently relies on C variable argument list handling and thus needs some tweaking—perhaps just in the form of sane ANSI C89 prototype declarations and introduction of some typedefs—to be reasonable with modern calling conventions edit: I remember what the issue is, all of the XView APIs are variadic and freely mix int variables, integer literals (which get promoted to int), and pointers, which is only really safe on 64-bit with an ILP64 ABI with an LP64 ABI, there’s no way to force C varargs to always promote non-long integers to pointer-sized types short of adding a custom compiler __attribute__ with which to tag function prototypes and LOL at anyone modifying compilers just to support XView eschaton fucked around with this message at 22:25 on May 9, 2020 |
