Re: [fuse-devel] Re: Multiple mounts for a single FUSE process.

[Terje O. <os...@gm...>]

Have you had a chance to download and take a look at my code:

http://www.unixprogram.com/FUSE1.3/multiplemounts/
          &
http://www.unixprogram.com/FUSE1.3/multiplemounts/fuse_10-08-04_15.38.53_ex=
perimental.tar.gz

There are 3 versions in there using poll(), select(), and threads to
create 10 mounts with a single process.

It's been a while since I've looked at it, but it seems that it
wouldn't be too difficult to clean it up and make it work with the
latest version of FUSE, then add the ability to add and remove mounts
on the fly with some sort of interface.

However I haven't taken a look at FUSE for several months, and it
seems to be evolving quickly, so I don't have a clue how compatible my
FUSE 1.3 usage is with the latest version.
