Please don't. Or, if you do, please put in some comments in
libxl_internal.h about the public states of a
libxl__stream_read_state.
Earlier i wrote:
I don't mind this at all but I think if you do this you should:
* provide an _init method
* document that _init must be called before start
and
As far as I can tell, from the outside, this machinery has the usual
Undefined/Idle/Active states. [...]
It is usual for functions of this kind to take an Undefined struct and
make it Active.
See:
- the comment in libxl_internal.h about `Event generation functions'
- the following examples
libxl__spawn_spawn (accepts Undefined, this is documented)
libxl__bootloader_run (accepts Undefined, not documented)
libxl__datacopier_start (accepts Undefined, not documented)
libxl__openpty (accepts Undefined; no init method)
Thanks,
Ian.
