[Scrollkeeper-devel] API to get the count of newly added omf files

[Rajkumar S. <raj...@wi...>]

Hi,

This is further in continuation of my earlier mail about "Indication of
newly added omf file". On further analysis I wrote a small API say
scrollkeeper_get_omffile_count() in update.c which will return the count
of omf files that needs to be registered/unregistered with
scrollkeeper_docs.

With the help of this API any help browser would know if there are any
newly installed omf files that needs to be registered and if so it can
prompt a message to the user asking him to run 'scrollkeeper_update' to
register them.


Issue in implementing the API:
-----------------------------

I find that scrollkeeper doesn't have any API yet and hence there are no
scrollkeeper .h files to export the API's, so for implementing this
scrollkeeper_get_omffile_count() we would need to have a scrollkeeper .h
file installed in standard path (like /usr/include/scrollkeeper/*).

Pls. let me know if we could move forward in implementing this API.


Note: Am not sure if my previous mail sent on '25th Apr 2003' was
delivered to this list as I couldn't see it in the archives list
"http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=2014500&forum_id=4112",
hence am attaching my previous mail with it.


Thanks & Regards,
Raj.
