QUESTION

How to check if keyboard is connected or or not and use it if it is connected during runtime?

Asked 2021-Aug-02 at 13:00

So I have a QT project in which I want to check if a keyboard is connected. In case it's not connected I want to be able to still use it if it is connected during the program is running. I looked around and found a few libraries that might be suitable but I am not sure if they can do what I want. Libraries in question: libinput, libusb or Solid with KDE. My question is, will one of these libraries do what I want it to do or is it something completly different? If it is one of the above libraries than any examples would help a ton because I can't really get anything out of the documentation. I should probably also mention that I use a linux, or to be more exact openSUSE Leap 15.2

Okay, well turns out it wasn't as complicated as I thought and none of the libraries that I talked about are needed. Here is my solution, in case any one in the future is looking for something similar.

How to enable repository and install libinput on VMWare with openSUSE Leap 15.2

Asked 2021-Jul-14 at 07:54

First of all, I want to clarify that I am a complete noob concerning Linux/openSuse/etc. I am working on a project in QTCreator which will use a RFID Reader, to get the data of this reader I want to use the library "libinput" since the reader sends this data as if it is a keyboard. My problem is now that I need to install this library first. I found a website explaining the steps on how to this but I am already unsure what the first step means. The websites provide two links to repositories of libinput and state the I should follow the instruction of these repositories but I am unable to figure out where the instruction is or what the instructions are.

Here is the guide I am following: https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/latest/building.html#building-against

I am using a VMWare running openSUSE Leap 15.2 and the project will run on an embedded Linux system.

QUESTION

Unable to create directory in /usr/share

Asked 2020-Dec-02 at 13:05

I have heard its a conventional practice to store program dependent files in /usr/share/application-folder in linux. So I'm trying to do it in my c program in a function called load_interface_files() for example. I am not sure if this is a good practice or not, I've heard about creating configuration files for this kind of issues.

Anyways, here's the the code I wrote to make a directory in /usr/share.

use ls -ld /usr/share to see what the permissions on the directory are (without -d, you get the contents and their permissions).

ANSWER

Answered 2020-Aug-06 at 05:27

As discussed in comments, this isn't a Go issue at all, but rather just needs the use of the stdbuf command on GNU/Linux systems. See also this unix.stackexchange.com question and answer. The general idea is to make sure that the program you run using exec.Command does not buffer its own output inappropriately.

(The stdbuf programs generally use LD_PRELOAD to insert alternative I/O buffering for stdin, stdout, and stderr, or may be built into the standard libraries on the OS.)
