Hi, is there a way to signal an app, say swriter (LibreOffice/OpenOffice) to release an fd?
I'm working on a construction which is a layer around the normal system. It offers a totally different environment, like GoboLinux. One of the things is the easy access to removable devices like cdroms and usb sticks, in the folder /Computer/161-Transcend Jetflash Flash Drive Now it's already possible to do a "safe remove" (or detach..) to this device. This command simply does nothing when it detects there is a fd still open on the resource. Well actually the FUSE fs does that. Now the FUSE fs maintains a list of open fd's, together with the pid of the process which did the open. Does anyone know it's possible to send a signal to this app to take action (like offering a "close or copy to another location dialog") to close the fd...
