  2. 8.3 filename - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/8.3_filename

    An 8.3 filename (also called a short filename or SFN) is one that obeys the filename convention used by CP/M and old versions of DOS and versions of Microsoft Windows prior to Windows 95 and Windows NT 3.5. It is also used in modern Microsoft operating systems as an alternate filename to the long filename, to provide compatibility with legacy ...

  3. open (system call) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_(system_call)

    For most file systems, a program initializes access to a file in a file system using the open system call. This allocates resources associated to the file (the file descriptor ), and returns a handle that the process will use to refer to that file.

  4. Control flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_flow

    Upon leaving the using-block, the compiler guarantees that the stm object is released, effectively binding the variable to the file stream while abstracting from the side effects of initializing and releasing the file. Python's with statement and Ruby's block argument to File.open are used to similar effect.

  5. Name mangling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Name_mangling

    32-bit compilers emit, respectively: _f _g@4 @h@4 In the stdcall and fastcall mangling schemes, the function is encoded as _name@X and @name@X respectively, where X is the number of bytes, in decimal, of the argument(s) in the parameter list (including those passed in registers, for fastcall).

  6. File URI scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_URI_scheme

    The string "localhost" will attempt to access the file as UNC path \\localhost\c:\path\to\the file.txt, which will not work since the colon is not allowed in a share name. The dot "." results in the string being passed as \\.\c:\path\to\the file.txt, which will work for local files, but not shares on the local system. For example file ...

  7. File descriptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_descriptor

    File descriptors for a single process, file table and inode table. Note that multiple file descriptors can refer to the same file table entry (e.g., as a result of the dup system call [3]: 104 ) and that multiple file table entries can in turn refer to the same inode (if it has been opened multiple times; the table is still simplified because it represents inodes by file names, even though an ...

  8. Function (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_(computer...

    Assign a data type to the return value, if any; Specify a return value in the function body; Call a function; Provide actual parameters that correspond to a called function's formal parameters; Return control to the caller at the point of call; Consume the return value in the caller; Dispose of the values returned by a call

  9. License compatibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/License_compatibility

    License compatibility is a legal framework that allows for pieces of software with different software licenses to be distributed together. The need for such a framework arises because the different licenses can contain contradictory requirements, rendering it impossible to legally combine source code from separately-licensed software in order to create and publish a new program.
