[Kdenlive-devel] command end

[Rolf Dubitzky]

Hi,

I am not sure why you used non-blocking IO in the nullcutter, I think it makes 
much more sense to use blocking IO (eventually in a seperate thread of 
course), or am I missing something? Well, for now I just switched to blocking 
IO, but we have to make sure that we know when a complete command sequence 
has been send. One could think of parsing the XML but that will be very 
complicated when the doc is incomplete. The easiest way (I can think of) is 
to disallow empty lines (i.e. "\n\n") in commands and close every command 
with an empty line. I think that's a very common technique for text based 
protokolls.

If you agree, we should add that to the spec, or do you have a better idea?

Cheers,
Rolf
