Hello everyone

We're still working on making e17 modules, and have progressed a little bit
; for those who didn't have our previous mails here is a short presentation
of our situation :

We are two french students working on e17 modules.
We have three projects : include the elementary clock into a module, create
a module that loads an image on a regular basis and displays it (from an
internet server or from the computer) and finally a module enabeling us to
mount and unmount encrypted volules.

We made our first steps into the module configuration and we learned how to
basically use the edc file (we made our little "Hello world" module, very
proud).
We are currently experiencing two difficulties :
-Can we use an absolute path to search images and to load it dynamically
into the module (without having to restart it or enlightenment)? Currently,
we only see how to import images from the images directory (like skel does).
-On which Evas_object could we use the "elm_clock_add" function in order to
have the elementary clock to displays in the module? We tried the one into
the Instance struct (it makes e17 crash at every reload) or in the
E_Gadcon_Client into the Instance (it does nothing). So we are kinda stuck,
especially because we don't really have a clue of what are these objects
doing precisely (noobies spotted !).

We would be most grateful for any help you could provide (doc we haven't
noticed, module that does this kind of staff, etc.).

Best regards,

Jean Creusefond and Quentin Gibeaux
