Hi luggers...

Is there a way to create a /proc like filesystem wherein
user mode programs can be able to dynamically display
all/some of  it's varibles contents...

A user mode /proc is what exactly iam looking for...
Is there any such library/utility which is available already..
googling did not help...

If not present already... can anyone suggest a way to do so
without using a special device driver for that purpose...
I can think of a way... where u have a special device
driver /implement a system call which gets  the variable
values from the user programs and displays it in /proc itself..
But that shall be very much time consuming as for each refresh
a costly system call has to be made...

Is there any other way for implementing this in a user mode program...

This can be used in real time applications (where attaching with gdb is
not desired as it stops the application ) where u can see the variables
value dynamically.

Any inputs...???
