Hi Reshma, > > From: Reshma Pattan <reshma.pattan at intel.com> > > > > A new sample app that shows the usage of the distributor library.

Before applying this patch, I have 2 comments: - Other examples directories don't have _app suffix. - checkpatch reports "switch and case should be at the same indent" If you agree I will fix these 2 minor issues before applying. Thanks -- Thomas
