Hi,

Nevermind my bad. Didn't realize that opening a QFile in text mode ate all <CR> 
line endings and therefore gypsy didn't know when nmea sentence ended. Works 
now..

      Subject: gypsy with fifo


      Hi everyone,

      (in lieu of gypsy list trying here).

      Would anyone have any ideas what might be the issue here;
      I am trying to feed gypsy-daemon with a NMEA ASCII text file, but not yet 
succeeding in it.

      For this purpose I recorded some NMEA ASCII data. I wrote a small program 
which creates a named pipe (mkfifo) and writes  that data char by char at 
roughly 4ms interval.
      Pipe works ok ('cat' replays correct looking nmea data). However when 
running basic gypsy-daemon example with that pipe, it won't give any data in 
the callbacks (just 0,0 position once).

      I ran the same example against a real device (where the recorded data is 
from) and it works ok. It seems that the gypsy-daemon does open and read the 
pipe, because my feeding program writes data into the pipe (write blocks if 
there is no one reading it).

      Thanks for any tips,
      Juha (I'm using it for creating automated testing for location stuff)
