InteractionSystem
Goal
Roadmap
Objects architecture
- Interaction object
- void * pointer for interface specific stuff
- Widget object
- for input, associated with a vlc_value_t
- Interaction manager
- Maintains a list of currently active interaction displays
- When a new interaction is requested, forward the request to the
interface (ASYNCHRONOUS !)
- Asks the interface to show/modify/remove a display
- Active polling ?
- Signalling thhe interface :
- function pointer
- easier to know if interface does not support
-
- variable
- cleaner ? - "control" function
- Requester
- Builds the interaction object
- Add it to the interaction manager request queue.
- Queue or single with lock ?
- Analyze deadlock possibility
