Hi Just wanted to ask what is the expected function of the program if we provide a directory twice e.g.
. mysync options Directory1 Directory1 Directory2
There's two options I can think of
1. Ignore the second "Directory1"
2. Treat the second "Direct...
Is it appropriate to assume that the directory names given to us in the automated marking will always be relative to the folder of the project?
i.e. if a folder contains
- The project
- Directory1
- Directory2
I'm assuming that the project will be run . ...
Hi Chris, I've read through the forum posts on this issue and couldn't find one that addressed whether my understanding of syncing a directory and its subdirectory is correct. So just wanted to post an example. Sorry if I didn't read the previous pos...
Hi I have two things to ask about the project )
1. I was testing the sample solution and when I enabled "-a" the output of the program still showed that it was skipping the "." and ".." directories - is this incorrect or is my understanding of the p...
Hi Just wanted to clarify the expected behaviour of a system call that needs to use the CPU for a length of time equal to the time quantum From my understanding, this is the behaviour of the sample solution (just wanted to confirm that this is corr...
If a process is moving from RUNNING - DATABUS, does it immediately start its data transfer (if the databus is vacant)? Based on the clarifications it seemed to me that the process will wait in the DATABUS until the CPU becomes idle (after finishing ...
Hi just wanted to clarify my understanding of transitions (i.e. a process that is changing state e.g. RUNNING - BLOCKED). I've read all the posts on this forum (and there have been some previous ones on similar topics) but none of them seem to clari...
Just wanted to clarify my understanding of the state transitions. Can a process that is undergoing a state transition, consume time (in parallel with this transition that is happening on the CPU) in non-CPU related things i.e. using the databus.
I kno...
I seem to be having a problem using the sample solution. It gives me the error ERROR - process limit of 50 exceeded , when I use the following
sysconfig

When we are reading the command file and we encounter a system call to spawn a command, can we assume that the command being spawned will have been declared previously in the file (in an upper line, rather than a lower line)?
e.g. in the project descr...
