FCNTL.H

[Tony Thigpen]

Could someone send me a copy of FCNTL.H? (offlist!)

I need to compare some of the values to those used by our VSE IP product.

Thanks.

I did receive a copy of fcntl.h, but it is missing one value that I
need, F_DUPFD2. Could someone tell me the value for F_DUPFD2?

Hi

If you mean this:

#define F_SETFL 4
#define F_GETLK 5
#define F_SETLK 6
#define F_SETLKW 7
#define F_DUPFD2 8
#define F_CLOSFD 9
#define _F_GETFL 3

[Tony Thigpen]

Yes. Thanks

Hi Tony,

The values defined in <fcntl.h> are different in
different implementations.

Here's the ones from the BSD version (which probably
match Linux):

/* command values */
#define F_DUPFD 0 /* duplicate file descriptor */
#define F_GETFD 1 /* get file descriptor flags */
#define F_SETFD 2 /* set file descriptor flags */
#define F_GETFL 3 /* get file status flags */
#define F_SETFL 4 /* set file status flags */
#if __BSD_VISIBLE || __XSI_VISIBLE || __POSIX_VISIBLE >= 200112
#define F_GETOWN 5 /* get SIGIO/SIGURG proc/pgrp */
#define F_SETOWN 6 /* set SIGIO/SIGURG proc/pgrp */
#endif
#define F_OGETLK 7 /* get record locking information */
#define F_OSETLK 8 /* set record locking information */
#define F_OSETLKW 9 /* F_SETLK; wait if blocked */
#define F_DUP2FD 10 /* duplicate file descriptor to arg */
#define F_GETLK 11 /* get record locking information */
#define F_SETLK 12 /* set record locking information */
#define F_SETLKW 13 /* F_SETLK; wait if blocked */
#define F_SETLK_REMOTE 14 /* debugging support for remote locks */
#define F_READAHEAD 15 /* read ahead */
#define F_RDAHEAD 16 /* Darwin compatible read ahead */


and - here's the versions from IBM's z/OS implementation:

/*
* cmd values for fcntl()
*/
#define F_DUPFD 0
#define F_GETFD 1
#define F_SETFD 2
#ifdef __XPG4
#define F_GETFL 259
#else
#define F_GETFL 3
#endif

#define F_SETFL 4
#define F_GETLK 5
#define F_SETLK 6
#define F_SETLKW 7
#define F_DUPFD2 8
#define F_CLOSFD 9
#define _F_GETFL 3

#if (defined(__UU) || defined(_OE_SOCKETS))
#define F_GETOWN 10
#define F_SETOWN 11
#endif /* __UU || _OE_SOCKETS */

#ifdef __FX
#define F_SETTAG 12
#define F_CONTROL_CVT 13
#endif /* __FX */

/*
* l_type values for record locking with fcntl()
*/
#define F_RDLCK 1
#define F_WRLCK 2
#define F_UNLCK 3

Which numbers would be "right" to use???? I dunno...

In the Dignus implementation, we use the BSD numbers, and
map those to the IBM numbers under-the-covers when we invoke
the IBM interfaces...

Hear, hear! What I really hate about it is that you can't tell
whether a section is empty or that it is downloading the contents and
eventually will appear. It also suffers from the misconception that
there is useful content in each intermediate node of the tree. Too
often I find myself looking at some bogus paragraph and missing the
fact that there are sections underneath that have what I was looking
for.

I have a few old Bookmanager format books that I sometimes need. I
just tried the Java applet that IBM has to view books on your
workstation (aka Softcopy Reader). It's a 80 MB download but has the
look and feel of of BookManager Read on OS/2 many years ago. A
previous version was probably worse than InfoCenter, but v4 appears
reasonable (but if it could, I'd print the entire book into a PDF and
use that).

I still remember when I fell in love with Library Reader/DOS. It was a
huge boost in productivity to have all books handy (also at home) and
not having to borrow a copy from a senior colleage (and promise to
return it before sunset). Since it's Friday, I'm installing Win98 in
VirtualBox now to see whether it really was as good as I remember.
Somehow time affects how you remember things...

Gentlemen, we feel your pain!

As you know, our product relies heavily on extracting content from IBM z/OS
technical documentation, and we have always used BookManager format doc in
preference to other forms because of how easy it is to use. Now that
BookManager is going the way of the dodo, and Info Center is "the way of
the future", we can all suffer together...

One wonders, though I'm not holding my breath, if IBM might open
source the Bookie data format... Maybe someone else could do a better
job of keeping it going.

I'd rather get the "raw" book in whatever format it is. Of course, this might lead to people making their own changes. Which might be what IBM is wanting to avoid. The documentation equivalent of OCO.
