Rsync for program loading on embedded platforms

2004-06-01 Thread Greger Cronquist
Hi, Has anyone considered using the rsync algorithm for loading programs on embedded platforms? I.e. with low cpu power (say, 16-25 MHz ARM7) and low memory requirements (programs are 128 KB, and the rsync algorithm must use little ROM and RAM). Or is it just not worth the effort? I guess

what does lp_log_file mean??

2004-06-01 Thread Guo jing
I have some problems when I read the code of the rsync. There are many reference such as lp_log_file, lp_uid, lp_include_from, etc. in the file clientserver.c and log.c . Who can tell what do they mean? Are they functions? Where I can find the particular information about them?

Thanks Martin: Sorry about the kernel omission: 2.6.6 The bugzilla application setup for the kernel had a seperate field for the kernel version and I didn't add this information to the message I sent tot he list.. The bugzilla application assigned my report bug number: 2801 Dennis Martin Pool
