Hi everybody, It seems that zcaplib (zlib with capabilties) has to change a lot. After talking with pjd@ of possible better ways to develop zcaplib, as well as its current design flaws, he realized that I was not using a good design since I only had a unique sandboxed process doing all the zlib stuff, and passing "commands" back and forth from the child (worker) process, and the parent process. pjd@ then introduced me to pdfork(2). That is, a process that has been tought just to sandboxing. Than really changes all that I've been doing with the library. The library, it will be more quick to port, that's true. The only problem is starting form the beginning again. But well, we're here to learn, aren't we? -- Daniel
