    <p>I have some problems trying to make a simple program using execlp, fork and pipes. The program at hand is supossed to do "last |head -5| sort" but it doesn't work. Here is the code.</p> <pre><code>#include &lt;string.h&gt; #include &lt;fcntl.h&gt; #include &lt;stdio.h&gt; #include &lt;errno.h&gt; #include &lt;sys/types.h&gt; #include &lt;sys/stat.h&gt; //last |head -5| sort int main(int argc, char* argv[]){ int buzon[2]; int buzon2[2]; if(pipe(buzon) &lt; 0) error("error de pipe"); switch(fork()){ case -1: error("error de fork"); case 0: if(close(1) &lt; 0) error("error de close"); if(dup(buzon[1]) &lt; 0) error("error de dup"); if(close(buzon[0]) &lt; 0) error("error de close"); if(close(buzon[1]) &lt; 0) error("error de close"); execlp("last", "last", NULL); error("error de execlp"); } switch(fork()){ case -1: error("error de fork"); case 0: if(close(0) &lt; 0) error("error de close"); if(close(1) &lt; 0) error("error de close"); if(dup(buzon[0]) &lt; 0) error("error de dup"); if(dup(buzon[1]) &lt; 0) error("error de dup"); if(close(buzon[0]) &lt; 0) error("error de close"); if(close(buzon[1]) &lt; 0) error("error de close"); execlp("head", "head", "-n 5", NULL); error("error de execlp"); } switch(fork()){ case -1: error("error de fork"); case 0: if(close(0)&lt;0) error("error de close"); if(dup(buzon[0]) != 1) error("error de dup"); if(close(buzon[0]) &lt; 0) error("error de close"); if(close(buzon[1]) &lt; 0) error("error de close"); execlp("sort", "sort", NULL); error("error de execlp"); } if(close(buzon[0]) &lt; 0) error("error de close"); if(close(buzon[1]) &lt; 0) error("error de close"); while(wait(NULL) != -1); } </code></pre> <p>Any idea of what fails. The problem is when I use 2 pipes. If I make a program which only uses 1 pipe, it works.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
