i was pondering between two options; a) hope that the python APIs are just thin wrappers that send the actual commands to the daemon process via a unix socket and instead write code that uses the protocol on the socket in a language of choice. b) generate an python script for certain calls and then call them in order to call the APIs. the first would be beneficial as that allows us to receive notifications from the daemon (like a new VM starting). My language of choice is Qt/C++ with QML for the GUI. -- Tom Zander Blog: https://zander.github.io Vlog: https://vimeo.com/channels/tomscryptochannel -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
