Are there any long term plans regarding this code? that basically was a dns client lookup. the problem is it didn't handle /etc/hosts, /etc/nsswitch.conf etc. etc. it was a good bit of work by seb - but it needed a fair bit more. i decided to move it to a forked child and pipe back to the parent model. now to the code. the child fork (in the /* CHILD */ commented section) doesn't matter as it just exits anyway - losing any fd's. note that that code sets up sets up 2 callbacks. one for the exit of the child process and another for the fd handler (when data comes down the fd). when they get their data - they close the fd[0] when they get their data - but not fd[1] - true. so yes. fd leak. fixed now :) > > _______________________________________________ > enlightenment-devel mailing list > enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel > -- ------------- Codito, ergo sum - "I code, therefore I am" -------------- The Rasterman (Carsten Haitzler) [EMAIL PROTECTED] 裸好多 Tokyo, Japan (東京 日本) _______________________________________________ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
