I've been tearing my hair out this evening with some thread problems
but *hopefully* looked like I solved it, I'll commit when I've got the
new features in there. Today I've been working on a higher interface
to pool commands for what can be classed as 'watchers',
Ie we want to know the latest metadata & the status of the cue button
regally, the current design on the svn creates a new thread for each
watcher. This obviously being quite wasteful on system resources if we
have 20 things watching and 20 threads.
Also the current system doesn't check if it has anything new to emit,
it just emits data no matter what. Ie If there's no changes in the
queue it still emits a signal and bothers the liststore checkers.
Anyway, such a metadata watcher could easily be put into some small
apps anyway for watching existing liq's. When I'm a bit further along
and have some free time I'll create a mini interface to watch any
liquidsoap instance.
