porting

I am migrating an applciation from windows to linux. I am facing problem with respect to WaitForSingleObject and WaitForMultipleObjects interfaces. In my application I spawn multiple threads where all threads wait for events from parent process or periodically run for every t seconds. I have checked pthread_cond_timedwait , but we have to specify absolute time for this. How can I implement this in Unix? Stick to pthread_cond_timedwait and use clock_gettime . For example: struct timespec ts; clock_gettime(CLOCK_REALTIME, &ts); ts.tv_sec += 10; // ten seconds while (!some_condition && ret == 0)

I have a problem I'm struggling with. I have this mixin (which is an attempt to port some less to sass ): @mixin button-variant($color, $background, $border) { ... .foreverAlone{ ... } .iThink .illNeverWork& { color: $pinkUnicornRainbow; ... } } Which obviously is not working :D I would like it to generate something like: .callerClass .foreverAlone{ ... } .callerClass .iThink .illNeverWork.callerClass{ color: #123ABC; ... } The mixin is called inside various div classes, so it is not possible to make it static (easily). Is there any workaround from some Sass pro (or not pro, but smarter than I

George Marsaglia has written an excellent random number generator that is extremely fast, simple, and has a much higher period than the Mersenne Twister. Here is the code with a description: good C random number generator I wanted to port the CMWC4096 code to Java, but it uses several unsigned datatypes so I am not sure how to do this properly. Here is the full C code: /* choose random initial c<809430660 and */ /* 4096 random 32-bit integers for Q[] */ static unsigned long Q[4096],c=362436; unsigned long CMWC4096(void) { unsigned long long t, a=18782LL; static unsigned long i=4095; unsigned
