How do I wait for a key in GNU EFI?
I intend it to wait for a single key, then continue execution.
My code:
#include <efi.h>
#include <efilib.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
EFI_STATUS efi_main (EFI_HANDLE ImageHandle, EFI_SYSTEM_TABLE *SystemTable) {
EFI_STATUS Status;
ST = SystemTable;
Status = uefi_call_wrapper(ST->ConOut->ClearScreen, 1, ST->ConOut);
if (EFI_ERROR(Status)){
...
return Status;
}
...
Status = ST->ConIn->Reset(ST->ConIn,1!=1);
if (EFI_ERROR(Status)){
...
return Status;
}
// wait for key here
return EFI_SUCCESS;
}
You can get some ideas from the EDK2 implementation of UEFI Shell.
The basic principle is that you need to set up an event waiting for a keypress.
See also section 12.3 Simple Text Input Protocol in UEFI specification v2.8.
TOP OUTSIDE OF efi_main(...){...} YOU SHOULD ADD EFI_INPUT_KEY Key;
INSIDE OF efi_main AFTER,
#if defined(_GNU_EFI)
InitializeLib(ImageHandle, SystemTable);
#endif
ADD UINTN KeyEvent = 0;
OR WHATEVER YOUR WAY IS...
Print(L"PRESS ANY KEY OR PLEASE PRESS ESC TO EXIT.%N\n");
uefi_call_wrapper(SystemTable->ConOut->OutputString, 1, SystemTable->ConOut, L"START KEY READ\n"); // YES WE COULD DO SIMPLY Print(...);
SystemTable->ConIn->Reset(SystemTable->ConIn, FALSE);
//NOW WE SHOULD READ SOME KEYS
//YOU CAN ADD ANY OTHER OPTION HERE, WHEN CAPSLOCK ON THAT WILL PRINT FIRST CHAR CAPITALIZED BUT NOT REST OF CHARACTERS SINCE WE RESET...
//IF YOU WANT MORE KEYS SIMPLY IN VISUAL STUDIO TYPE SCAN_ AND YOU WILL SEE OTHER KEYS
/*...OTHER...*/
while ((UINTN)Key.ScanCode != SCAN_ESC)
{
SystemTable->BootServices->WaitForEvent(1, &SystemTable->ConIn->WaitForKey, &KeyEvent);
SystemTable->ConIn->ReadKeyStroke(SystemTable->ConIn, &Key);
SystemTable->ConIn->Reset(SystemTable->ConIn, FALSE);
Print(L"%c", Key.UnicodeChar);
}
/*...OTHER...*/
SystemTable->RuntimeServices->ResetSystem(EfiResetShutdown, EFI_SUCCESS, 0, NULL);
return EFI_SUCCESS;

I am trying to understand an observation on behavior of select() when used on stdin, when it is receiving data from a pipe.
Basically I had a simple C program using the following code:
hello.c:
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <termios.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int flags, opt;
int nsecs, tfnd;
fd_set rfds;
struct timeval tv;
int retval;
int stdin_fileno_p1 = STDIN_FILENO+1;
char c;
int n;
/* Turn off canonical processing on stdin*/
static struct termios oldt, newt;
tcgetattr( STDIN_FILENO, &oldt);
newt = oldt;
newt.c_lflag &= ~(ICANON);
tcsetattr( STDIN_FILENO, TCSANOW, &newt);
while (1)
{
FD_ZERO(&rfds);
FD_SET(STDIN_FILENO, &rfds);
tv.tv_sec = 0;
tv.tv_usec = 0;
retval = select(stdin_fileno_p1, &rfds, NULL, NULL, &tv);
if ( retval && (retval!=-1) )
{
n = read(STDIN_FILENO, &c, 1);
write(STDOUT_FILENO, &c, 1);
}
else printf("No Data\n");
usleep(100000);
}
tcsetattr( STDIN_FILENO, TCSANOW, &oldt);
}
If I ran the program as follows I could see characters echoing when I type keys on while the program is running. When keys are not pressed, it displays "No Data" as expected.
./hello
However, if use the program as follows, the program never gets to a state where is displays "No Data". Instead last character "c" is repeatedly displayed.
echo -n abc | ./hello
I'm a bit puzzled by this observation, and would be grateful if you could help me to understand the observed behavior.
The problem is that your program does not detect an end-of-file condition when it reads from the STDIN_FILENO descriptor. After echo has written the c character it will close its end of the pipe, which will cause the select in your program to return immediately and your read to return 0 as an indication that no more data will ever be available from that descriptor. Your program doesn't detect that condition. Instead it just calls write with whatever character was left in the buffer by the last successful read and then repeats the loop.
To fix, do if (n==0) break; after the read.
I'm doing a script using CAPL and am stuck for a solution to grep the login ID from Windows. Could some please help show how to get Windows user login ID from within a CAPL program code, if this is possible?
For example, if the Windows user login ID is 'kp21ml' , I want to read this ID from a CAPL function, as shown below.
byte UserIdCheck()
{
char uid[10];
byte CanMessageTrasmission;
strncpy(uid, xxxx(), 6); // where xxxx() is the unknown OS or system function that could return the login ID ?
if (strncmp(uid, "kp21ml") != 0)
{
write("Access denied!"); // Message to CANoe's Write window
CanMessageTrasmission = 0;
}
else
{
// Access ok
CanMessageTrasmission = 1;
}
return CanMessageTrasmission;
}
I use this CAPL book as my reference guide, which is very good:
http://docplayer.net/15013371-Programming-with-capl.html
But I couldn't find anything to do with system access. I would appreciate your help.
Thanks
Juno
I'm afraid you won't be able to do that directly from a CAPL script.
I generally create a CAPL-DLL and include that in my CANoe project when I need to access some OS level functionality. Though I use it mostly for accessing an external device (e.g. USB) or to interact with another program using sockets over local host, the principle is the same.
You can find more information in CANoe's documentation with examples but the CAPL-DLL source code provided in CANoe samples is a little difficult to understand.
I've attempted to strip some of the "unnecessary" parts in the following code sample; this example will create a CAPL-DLL which "exposes" the multiplyBy10 function and basically allows you to call multiplyBy10 from you CAPL script):
#define USECDLL_FEATURE
#define _BUILDNODELAYERDLL
#pragma warning( disable : 4786 )
#include "cdll.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <map>
char moduleName[_MAX_FNAME];
HINSTANCE moduleHandle;
unsigned int
CAPLEXPORT far CAPLPASCAL multiplyBy10 (unsigned char value)
{
unsigned int result = value * 10;
freopen("CONOUT$", "w", stdout);
std::cout << "multiplyBy10() - value: " << int(value) << ", result: " << result << std::endl;
return (result);
}
CAPL_DLL_INFO4 table[] =

{"multiplyBy10", (CAPL_FARCALL)multiplyBy10, "CAPL_DLL", "This is a demo function", 'L', 1, "D", "", { "value"}},
{0, 0}
};

return 1;
}

So I'm working on a Gtk/X11/Linux app that does screen capture to .gif and one of the methods of stopping the capture is a key press (Esc, Space or End). You can also use a timeout. However to implement the key press to end capture I have to be able to grab the key such that I can get an event even though my window doesn't have focus (it's actually invisible during capture). I believe XGrabKey is the right X11 function for this task:
Window w = Gtk::gdk_x11_drawable_get_xid(Gtk::gtk_widget_get_window(Handle()));
KeyCode kc = XKeysymToKeycode(Gtk::gdk_display, HotKeyCode);
int r = XGrabKey( Gtk::gdk_display,
kc,
0 /* modifiers */,
w /* grab_window */,
TRUE /* owner_events */,
GrabModeAsync /* pointer_mode */,
GrabModeAsync /* keyboard_mode */);
printf("XGrabKey(%p, 0x%x/%x)=%i\n", w, HotKeyCode, kc, r);
Where 'HotKeyCode' is say XK_Escape or something e.g.:
XGrabKey(0x3e00003, 0xff1b/9)=1
XGrabKey is returning '1' or BadRequest. What am I doing wrong here?
FYI the actual Xorg Xserver code in question appears to be here.
Edit: The latest incarnation of the code is:
int x_err_callback(Display *d, XErrorEvent *e)
{
char msg[256];
XGetErrorText(d, e->error_code, msg, sizeof(msg));
printf("X11Error %d (%s): request %d.%d\n",
e->error_code, msg, e->request_code,
e->minor_code);
return 0;
}
Gtk::GdkFilterReturn key_filter(Gtk::GdkXEvent *gdk_xevent,
Gtk::GdkEvent *event,
Gtk::gpointer data)
{
XKeyEvent *xevent = gdk_xevent;
if (xevent->type == KeyPress)
{
int key = ((XKeyEvent *)gdk_xevent)->keycode;
int keysym = XKeycodeToKeysym(Gtk::gdk_display, key, 0);
printf("caught keysym %i\n", keysym);
switch (keysym)
{
case 1: // your_keysym
// your key handler code
break;
}
}
return Gtk::GDK_FILTER_CONTINUE;
}
Gtk::GdkWindow *Root = Gtk::gdk_get_default_root_window();
KeyCode kc = XKeysymToKeycode(Gtk::gdk_display, HotKeyCode);
XSetErrorHandler(x_err_callback);
int r = XGrabKey( Gtk::gdk_display,
kc,
AnyModifier /* modifiers */,
GDK_WINDOW_XWINDOW(Root) /* grab_window */,
TRUE /* owner_events */,
GrabModeAsync /* pointer_mode */,
GrabModeSync /* keyboard_mode */);
Gtk::gdk_window_set_events(Root,
(Gtk::GdkEventMask)
(Gtk::GDK_KEY_PRESS_MASK |
Gtk::GDK_KEY_RELEASE_MASK));
Gtk::gdk_window_add_filter(NULL, key_filter, this);
AnyModifier actually results in an error. '0' doesn't. I know about the NumLock issue...
A return value of 1 does not mean that a BadRequest error occured. Xlib handles errors via an error handler, and the function will always return 1, if it returns at all.
Your code does not work because you have to do the XGrabKey on the root window (GetDefaultRootWindow(Gtk::gdk_display)). Here's a pure Xlib demo:
#include <X11/Xlib.h>
#include <X11/keysym.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
Display *d = XOpenDisplay(0);
Window root = DefaultRootWindow(d);
int keycode = XKeysymToKeycode(d, XK_BackSpace);
int rv = XGrabKey(d, keycode, AnyModifier, root, 1, GrabModeAsync, GrabModeAsync);
printf("XGrabKey returned %d\n", rv);
XEvent evt;
while(1) {
XNextEvent(d, &evt);
printf("Got event %d\n", evt.type);
}
}
To then capture the X11 events from GTK use gdk_window_add_filter on a NULL or on the root window and a GdkFilterFunc that processes the events associated with your global hotkey:
#include <X11/Xlib.h>
#include <X11/keysym.h>
#include <gtk/gtk.h>
#include <gdk/gdkx.h>
#include <stdio.h>
GdkFilterReturn filter(GdkXEvent *xevent, GdkEvent *event, gpointer data) {
XKeyEvent *ev = (XKeyEvent *)xevent;
if(ev->type == 2) {
printf("Backspace hit.\n");
}
return GDK_FILTER_CONTINUE;
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
gtk_init(&argc, &argv);
GdkScreen *scr = gdk_screen_get_default();
GdkWindow *groot = gdk_screen_get_root_window(scr);
gdk_window_set_events(groot, GDK_KEY_PRESS_MASK);
gdk_window_add_filter(groot, filter, NULL);
Display *d = gdk_x11_get_default_xdisplay();
Window root = GDK_WINDOW_XID(groot);
int keycode = XKeysymToKeycode(d, XK_BackSpace);
XGrabKey(d, keycode, AnyModifier, root, 1, GrabModeAsync, GrabModeAsync);
gtk_main();
}
As a side note, a modifier mask of 0 means that no modifiers must be enabled, even those that would not modify the meaning of a key. A grab on the letter "A" with a 0 modifier would not match NumLock + A. That's why I used AnyModifer.
EDIT: I have created a ticket for this which has data on an alternative to this way of doing things.
I have updated the code in an attempt to use MY_CXT's callback as gcxt was not storing across threads. However this segfaults at ENTER.

Quick comments:
Do not use Perl structs (SV, AV, HV, ...) outside of the context of a Perl interpreter object. I.e. do not use it as C-level static data. It will blow up in a threading context. Trust me, I've been there.
Check out the "Safely Storing Static Data in XS" section in the perlxs manpage.
Some of that stuff you're doing looks rather non-public from the point of view of the perlapi. I'm not quite certain, though.
$time needs to be a shared variable - otherwise perl works with separate copies of the variable.
My preferred way of handling this is storing the data in the PL_modglobal hash. It's automatically tied to the current interpreter.
We have found a solution to this using Perl interpreter threads and threads::shared. Please see these
Time.xs
Also here is an example of a script using this code.

I am looking for a command line parser for Qt4.
I did a small google search, and found this: http://www.froglogic.com/pg?id=PublicationsFreeware&category=getopt however it lacks support for "--enable-foo" and "--disable-foo" switches. Besides that, it looks like a real winner.
EDIT:
It seems Frologic removed this. So the best options I see are using Boost (which is not API nor ABI stable) or forking the support for kdelibs. Yay...
QCoreApplication's constructors require (int &argc, char **argv) (and QApplication inherits from QCoreApplication). As the documentation states, it is highly recommended that
Since QApplication also deals with common command line arguments, it is usually a good idea to create it before any interpretation or modification of argv is done in the application itself.
And if you're letting Qt get the first pass at handling arguments anyways, it would also be a good idea to use QStringList QCoreApplication::arguments() instead of walking through argv; QApplication may remove some of the arguments that it has taken for its own use.
This doesn't lend itself to being very compatible with other argument-parsing libraries...
However, kdelibs does come with a nice argument parser, KCmdLineArgs. It is LGPL and can be used without KApplication if you really want (call KCmdLineArgs::init).
KCmdLineOptions options;
options.add("enable-foo", ki18n("enables foo"));
options.add("nodisable-foo", ki18n("disables foo"));
// double negatives are confusing, but this makes disable-foo enabled by default
KCmdLineArgs::addCmdLineOptions(options);
KApplication app;
KCmdLineArgs *args = KCmdLineArgs::parsedArgs();
if (args->isSet("enable-foo") && !args->isSet("disable-foo"))
cout << "foo enabled" << endl;
else
cout << "foo disabled" << endl;
Untested (who ever tests what they post on S.O.?).
Since Qt 5.2 you can finally find a solution in QtCore itself: I contributed QCommandLineParser there.
This is more or less the same answer as ephemient, but with a simple regexp to help parse the args. (This way could be useful if you only need a handful of args)
Run with this:
./QArgTest --pid=45 --enable-foo
And the code:
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
QApplication app(argc, argv, false);
qDebug() << "QApp arg test app";
QStringList args = app.arguments();
int pid = 0;
QRegExp rxArgPid("--pid=([0-9]{1,})");
QRegExp rxArgFooEna("--enable-foo");
QRegExp rxArgFooDis("--disable-foo");
for (int i = 1; i < args.size(); ++i) {
if (rxArgPid.indexIn(args.at(i)) != -1 ) {
pid = rxArgPid.cap(1).toInt();
qDebug() << i << ":" << args.at(i) << rxArgPid.cap(1) << pid;
}
else if (rxArgFooEna.indexIn(args.at(i)) != -1 ) {
qDebug() << i << ":" << args.at(i) << "Enable Foo";
}
else if (rxArgFooDis.indexIn(args.at(i)) != -1 ) {
qDebug() << i << ":" << args.at(i) << "Disable Foo";
}
else {
qDebug() << "Uknown arg:" << args.at(i);
}
}
return 0;
}
There is also QxtCommandOptions from http://www.libqxt.org/
That package does support --disable-foo and --enable-foo via opts.addSwitch("disable-foo", &foo_disabled); and opts.addSwitch("enable-foo", &foo_enabled);. You need handle checking both, and dealing with someone specifying both (oops).
What I don't understand is how this has anything to do with QT4...
Look at this: http://code.google.com/p/qtargparser/
A really simple method is to scan "key=value" args,
put them in a table say zz.map: QString -> QVariant,
and get their values with zz.map.value( key, default ).
An example:
#include "ztest.h"
Ztest zz;
int main( int argc, char* argv[] )
{
zz.eqargs( ++ argv ); // scan test=2 x=str ... to zz.map
QString xx = zz.map.value( "xx", "" );
if( Zint( Size, 10 )) // a #def -> zz.map.value( "Size", 10 )
...
ztest.h is < 1 page, below; same for Python ~ 10 lines.
(Everybody has his/her favorite options parser;
this one's about the simplest.
Worth repeating: however you specify options, echo them to output files --
"every scientist I know has trouble keeping track
of what parameters they used last time they ran a script".)
To make QPoints etc work one of course needs a QString -> QPoint parser.
Anyone know offhand why this doesn't work (in Qt 4.4.3) ?
QPoint pt(0,0);
QDataStream s( "QPoint(1,2)" );
s >> pt;
qDebug() << "pt:" << pt; // QPoint(1364225897,1853106225) ??
Added 25nov --
// ztest.h: scan args x=2 s=str ... to a key -> string table
// usage:
// Ztest ztest;
// int main( int argc, char* argv[] )
// {
// QApplication app( argc, argv );
// ztest.eqargs( ++ argv ); // scan leading args name=value ...
// int x = Zint( x, 10 ); // arg x= or default 10
// qreal ff = Zreal( ff, 3.14 );
// QString s = Zstr( s, "default" );

It's 2013 and still no "1st party" arg parser. Anyways..if anyone finds themselves facing the same problem and would like to avoid the learning curves that come with cmd parser libs, here is a "quick & dirty" fix for you:-
QString QArgByKey(QString key, QChar sep = QChar('\0') ) //prototype usually in separate header
QString QArgByKey(QString key, QChar sep )
{
bool sepd=sep!=QChar('\0');
int pos=sepd?qApp->arguments().indexOf(QRegExp('^'+key+sep+"\\S*")):qApp->arguments().indexOf(QRegExp(key));
return pos==-1?QString::null:
(sepd?qApp->arguments().at(pos).split(sep).at(1):(++pos<qApp->arguments().size()?qApp->arguments().at(pos):QString::null));
}
Example:-
user#box:~$ ./myApp firstKey=Value1 --secondKey Value2 thirdKey=val3.1,val3.2,val3.3 --enable-foo
Usage:
QString param1 = QArgByKey("firstkey",'='); // Returns `Value1` from first pair
QString param2 = QArgByKey("--secondkey"); // Returns `Value2` from second pair
QString param3-1 = QArgByKey("thirdkey",'=').split(',').at(0); // Returns `val3.1`
bool fooEnabled = qApp->arguments().contains("--enable-foo"); //To check for `--enable-foo`
Params can be passed in any order
Edit: Updates to this snippet will be found here
Does it have to be Qt4 specific? If not, GNU Getopt is really nice, although licensing may be a problem if you are not doing open source software.
Also for some fancy options parsing you can try gperf.
IBM has a nice tutorial on it.
Another option I ran across while looking to do this, too:
http://code.google.com/p/qgetopts/
I haven't used it though.
