Показать описание
Demo using fork and exec to run an executable from disk in a new process. Show how to pass arguments, wait for child to complete, and how to spawn multiple children. Shows advantage of using multiple processes over a single process in terms of using CPU power of multiple processors (cores).

Nice tuts, but I still have a few questions:
0.what happens if you allocate memory on the heap before calling fork and exec?
1.how can I communicate between the parent and the forked process (beyond just getting child's return value)
2.i forked my program, and exec'ed some other binary(from the child). the binary prints stuff out to the cli. Can I get its output from the parent code? Is popen() better suited for that kind of stuff?

what if one of the arguments passed in is "&" so that it is a background command when doing bash arguments? does exec recognize this?

Sir! I have a scenario.. Can we take inputs using exec system call?
As fork() returns two values, then how we are going to return those two values using exec(). If it makes sense, Please do a short program on execlp() taking two inputs from user and returning two values(one to the child process and other value to the parent process).. and it actually performs a task there like making a directory or pings for a website etc.

Regards!

Thank you very much, is there a way to make the children do different tasks for example I want one to sort and the other get the sum or average and so on ?  Thank you

I cant understand why the parent need to wait for the child or the program would never end. It is the part around 8 mins.

Ugh I hate how none of these videos go into any detail. Can't one of them at least describe more complex trees
