Hi Nala
Ik actually use the underlying method in C at a number of other places. And I am uncertain that other posixen might use other numbers. So I considered exporting it directly.
In any case, the sysconf won't work on a handful of unfortunate operating systems.
But you are right. The less in C, the better.
nice work!
I may take look at it closely.
And I would recommend you use FFI if you just want to get pagesize, it's
easier than writing bunch of C code:
=============================code========================
(use-modules (system foreign))
(define ffi (dynamic-link))
(define sysconf
(pointer->procedure int
(dynamic-func "sysconf" ffi)
(list int)))
(sysconf 30) ; 30 stands for _SC_PAGESIZE
==> 4096
==============================end=======================
Happy hacking!
