Wasn't a common sense that dynamically loaded modules should be never unload? I recall raster disabling the actual dlclose(), if not in Eina, something in e_modules... It's too dangerous, and is it worth? As a note, kernel developers condemn module unloading, saying it's just a module developer feature and should never be used by end-users (although we all do to work around buggy kernel modules such as broadcom's proprietary wifi). -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri http://profusion.mobi embedded systems -------------------------------------- MSN: barbi...@gmail.com Skype: gsbarbieri Mobile: +55 (19) 9225-2202 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF email is sponsosred by: Try Windows Azure free for 90 days Click Here http://p.sf.net/sfu/sfd2d-msazure _______________________________________________ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
