In my opinion libcups should get moved into a project separate from
cupsd, as it is the standard implementation for IPP in free software,
and with the PWG (Printer Working Group, http://www.pwg.org/) IPP Scan
and IPP System Service libcups will not stay a print-only thingy but
will also serve for scanning and other things.
Three questions:
1. Is it correct, that libcups doesn't need an explicit initialization,
or, at least, its initialization code is internally protected, so it
doesn't have a requirement to be initialized from the main thread of the
main executable?
2. Is it correct, that libcups as HTTP client can be used on
non-blocking manner with poll/select based event loop?
3. Is it correct, that libcups HTTP API allows asynchronous reading of
the HTTP reply body?
I'm not very familiar with libcups, but my impression that all answers
are "yes". Am I correct?
