| jMCg | Hello happy people. | 08:05 |
|---|---|---|
| jMCg | I just discovered that the upstart cookbook uses some horrible anti-patterns in its examples | 08:06 |
| jMCg | for dir in `ls /var/lib/queues` | 08:06 |
| jMCg | Anyways, the question I'm here for actually, other than, how do I fix the examples in that cookbook and send you patches, is: Can I change setuid/setgid *per* instance? | 08:11 |
| jMCg | Use more quotes: http://apaste.info/12l8 | 08:28 |
| toabctl | jodh, are you working on the file bridge? and if so, is there already some code? | 14:13 |
| toabctl | I also wanted to know if there is html documentation for libnih. would be nice to have this at developer.ubuntu.com | 14:13 |
| jodh | toabctl: yes, I am. I'll push some code somewhere soon. I forget who (xnox?), but someone @ UDS offered to auto-gen some dev docs using doxygen as NIH uses the KDE commenting-format. | 14:14 |
| xnox | jodh: s/KDE/gtk-doc/ | 14:15 |
| jodh | xnox: close :) | 14:15 |
| xnox | toabctl: jodh: yeah I did generate gtk-doc locally for both, it doesn't look very nice (formatting errors), tried to clean up and integrated and it broke again. | 14:16 |
| toabctl | xnox, would be nice to autogenerate the doc with the package. so build-dep would be gtk-doc | 14:17 |
| jodh | toabctl: I appreciate this isn't to everyones tastes, but I've configured vim for ctags for nih+dbus so you can just CTRL+] to jump to the actual NIH code (and doc of course). | 14:17 |
| xnox | toabctl: jodh: filed as bug 1087269 subscribe if you are interested =) | 14:18 |
| xnox | toabctl: yeah, i know. But gtk-doc needs correct bootstrapping with autoconf first which I didn't quite do right the first time around. When it works, I will propose a merge ;-) | 14:18 |
| jodh | xnox: subscribed. | 14:19 |
| jodh | xnox: Keybuk still owns NIH upstream, but if you can put an NIH branch with doc changes somewhere we can work on a new release branch and see if it gets his blessing :) | 14:20 |
| jodh | I'm still waiting for STL man pages :) | 14:20 |
| toabctl | jodh, how do you want to implement user sessions? with a new upstart instance for every user? or only one upstart instance which handles all the stuff? | 14:22 |
| xnox | jodh: STL? stereolithography file format? | 14:22 |
| jodh | toabctl: it's all here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FoundationsTeam/Specs/RaringUpstartUserSessions | 14:22 |
| jodh | xnox: C++ standard template library :) | 14:23 |
| jodh | toabctl: but in short, 1 instance per user. Makes for a much cleaner design and avoids nasty DoS possibilities. | 14:23 |
| jodh | toabctl: make that 1 instance / user *session* :) | 14:23 |
| toabctl | jodh, something different is mentioned here: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-q-upstart-session-requirements (see bottom of page) | 14:24 |
| toabctl | jodh, sometimes imho it's very confusing with alle the blueprints, wikis and mailinglists. I never know what's the right source | 14:24 |
| jodh | toabctl: that's the quantal blueprint, not the raring one. | 14:25 |
| toabctl | jodh, so half a year later all is different ? :-) | 14:25 |
| toabctl | jodh, some should at least mark the blueprint as outdated/invalid | 14:25 |
| toabctl | and point to the latest information for the topic | 14:26 |
| jodh | toabctl: it is marked "Implementation: Deferred". | 14:26 |
| jodh | toabctl: it's not that difficult - just go to https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/$release (ie raring) and see what the community is working on. | 14:27 |
| toabctl | jodh, ok. and the blueprints from blueprints.launchpad.net/upstart ? | 14:28 |
| jodh | toabctl: first time I've seen that page :) Those bp's refer to "upstream Upstart projects" whereas we are driving changes via the Ubuntu project (even though they actually land in upstream Upstart first). | 14:32 |
| toabctl | :) | 14:38 |
| stgraber | slangasek: when you have a minute, I'd like an opinion on https://code.launchpad.net/~stgraber/ubuntu/raring/libnih/libnih-dbus-as-type/+merge/138582 | 21:50 |
| stgraber | slangasek: it appears to work here, diffing upstart's generated code shows that it's only fixing the one variable I added, but I won't pretend to understand all the potential impact of that change ;) | 21:51 |
| slangasek | stgraber: hmm, I'm not familiar enough with this code myself to be a particularly good reviewer | 21:57 |
| slangasek | I can dive into it, but it'll take me a while. Maybe it's better to have jodh review? | 21:58 |
| stgraber | slangasek: ok. I wasn't sure how much of libnih you knew about. I can wait till tomorrow for jodh to review. | 21:58 |
| stgraber | slangasek: at least I have a local build with that fix so I can now write tests for my dbus branch without having upstart die on me :) | 21:59 |
| stgraber | slangasek: spoke too soon, looks like I'll need more magic in nih, the generated code segfaults in upstart though the nih testsuite itself passed. I guess it's missing a test with an empty array... | 22:06 |
| === You're now known as ubuntulog | ||
| slangasek | mmk :) | 22:06 |
| stgraber | right, so I managed to fix the generated code so that the upstart testsuite works, now to fix the generator to give me something that roughly matches my manually patched file :) | 22:25 |
