>You need to signal your app in some way.. Assuming you have source for the app then you can monitor /etc/localtime (or /etc) for change with kevent.
Signaling our C apps aren't the problem. We have an IPC framework in place and we can easily tell the C apps when the user has changed the time zone via the GUI. The problem is I can't figure out what C calls are needed to instantiate the time zone change. Based on the documentation, I would think that tzset() would do the trick once /etc/localtime has been updated by the Java app, but this does not work. The only way I've discovered that works is to restart our C apps and we want to avoid that. _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
