Hi guys,
I'm new to this project, I saw it on Enlightenment's page, and I have some
questions:
(All of these questions deal with FAM with the IMon backend, not polling.)
1) What's the status on kernel acceptance?
2) Can you disable the network use as a configuration option, i.e. if you
want to turn off the remote FAM use?
3) What is the internal API like? The reason I am wondering is, I was
thinking about looking into support for device driver notification, as in
Windows 2000, where if you unplug your network cable it lets you know. Is
this supported, first of all, and how hard would it be to hack in? I was
thinking along the lines of a /proc entry for the device driver which
a userspace process could then use FAM on... obviously I'd need to hack
the device driver, but how feasible is this?
4) If you use FAM on a directory, and a file is created inside it, will
the library let you know which file was created, or is the program then
responsible for rereading the entire directory?
Thanks,
Andy
