its not quite right the queue length can be zero and tracker can still be indexing. Also we overflow large queues into a temp table to preserve RAM (you will see it called as pending files in the code) so it can be zero but still have a large number of pending files you really need to check for the file process thread to be sleeping instead and set a suitable variable. There is a tracker->status variable already in the code in trackerd.c to track the various states but its not used anywhere so I dont know if its up to date everything else looks ok so feel free to send an update thanks jamie _______________________________________________ tracker-list mailing list tracker-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/tracker-list
