 | |
|     The most important thing is to keep the internal instance of the database
 | |
|     up to date. You can watch database changes with the <code>cl_stat</code>
 | |
|     family of functions.
 | |
|     <PRE>
 | |
| 	int cl_statinidir(const char *dirname, struct cl_stat *dbstat);
 | |
| 	int cl_statchkdir(const struct cl_stat *dbstat);
 | |
| 	int cl_statfree(struct cl_stat *dbstat);
 | |
| </PRE>
 | |
|     Initialization:
 | |
|     <PRE>
 | |
| 	    ...
 | |
| 	    struct cl_stat dbstat;
 | |
| 
 | |
| 	memset(&dbstat, 0, sizeof(struct cl_stat));
 | |
| 	cl_statinidir(dbdir, &dbstat);
 | |
| </PRE>
 | |
|     To check for a change you just need to call <code>cl_statchkdir</code> and check
 | |
|     its return value (0 - no change, 1 - some change occured):
 | |
|     <PRE>
 | |
| 	if(cl_statchkdir(&dbstat) == 1) {
 | |
| 	    reload_database...;
 | |
| 	    cl_statfree(&dbstat);
 | |
| 	    cl_statinidir(cl_retdbdir(), &dbstat);
 | |
| 	}
 | |
| </PRE>
 | |
|     Remember to reset the <code>cl_stat</code> structure after reload.
