【问题描述】:
我试图理解父母和孩子之间的交流。免责声明:以下是我的教授在课堂上提供的用于理解进程间通信的示例代码。我的主要弱点在于文件描述符。我知道 pipe(int array[2]) 使 array[0]=fd 用于 std in 和 array[1] 作为 std out。但这两者之间的沟通如何?我对CS相当陌生。谢谢!
/*
* This program demonstrates the use of pipes for interprocess communication.
* The parent process creates a pipe using the "pipe" system call. It then
* creates a child process and passes the child a file descriptor for one side
* of the pipe. It then writes a name to its side of the pipe and waits for the
* child to print a message incorporating the name.
*
* Before you attempt to run this program, be sure you've compiled the program
* named "hw3b.c" and have the executable in a file named "hw3b".
*/
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <strings.h>
#include <stdio.h>
/*
* The name of the file we plan to run. It's here in a define so that we can
* change it easily
*/
#define CHILDPROCNAME "hw3b"
/*
* The behavior of main() is specified by the previous comment
*/
int main(char* argv)
{
// store the ids of the two file descriptors that serve as the pipe
int mypipe[2];
// make the pipe
pipe(mypipe);
// child code:
if (fork() == 0) {
// execv requires us to create a full invocation, consisting of the
// string name of the program to run, a string for each command-line
// argument, and then a null string. We store all that in this array of
// strings
char* myargv[3];
// we use this to turn an int into a string
char buf[50];
// set up the name of the program to run
myargv[0] = calloc(strlen(CHILDPROCNAME) + 1, sizeof(char));
strcpy(myargv[0], CHILDPROCNAME);
// write one of the pipe's fds to the second parameter
sprintf(buf, "%d", mypipe[0]);
myargv[1] = calloc(strlen(buf) + 1, sizeof(char));
strcpy(myargv[1], buf);
// third param is null
myargv[2] = 0;
// switch to child process
execv(CHILDPROCNAME, myargv);
// NB: this should use fprintf and write to stderr
printf("Uh oh, execv didn't work!\n");
// crash on failure
exit(-1);
}
// parent code
else {
// status variable for storing the result of waitpid
int status;
// Send a string across the pipe to the child process
write(mypipe[1], "Kerry", strlen("Kerry"));
// wait for the child process to finish
waitpid(-1, &status, 0);
// NB: we should use status!
}
// close our half of the pipe
close(mypipe[1]);
}
【问题讨论】:
-
您需要添加其余代码。
childproc甚至没有被使用,它被定义为一个字符串。main没有实现,甚至不是一个有效的前向声明,后面没有分号。请发布p1.c -
main的其余部分在哪里?... -
主要是如果准备子进程调用 execv 然后调用它的参数
-
显然您的教授希望您编写一个程序来创建两个通过管道进行通信的进程。请给我们更多(大量!)背景信息来帮助您。
-
我刚刚添加了。请不要再投反对票了T__T。我现在被终身禁赛。
