Integrating an external UPS system?

site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com Delivered-To: darwin-dev(a)lists.apple.com Hi, I'm not sure this is the right place to ask but here it goes anyway: For example "man pmset" mentions UPS settings. I'd be greatful for any pointers on where to look for more information. Note: I have not done any KEXT or IOKit programming yet. Thanks.

Currently this software is cross platform and is not integrated into Darwin/Mac OS X at all. I was tasked to write an Mac OS X Installer for them (to avoid the UNIX shell stuff they had on the Mac before). So far so good. I have recently become aware of the fact, that Darwin/Mac OS X seems to have built-in support for UPS systems. But I couldn't find much information on how to actually integrate a UPS with the OS. The hardware usually comes with either USB or serial interfaces. The later would generally be converted using a USB<->Serial adaptor. I have found the reference documentation for IOUPSPlugInInterface and IOUPSPlugIn.h. But this seems rather sparse. This email sent to site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com

Am having problems and looking for help! First it seemed I did not have the 'make' utility, so I installed xcode 2.4.1 which seemd to fix that. Still CPAN tells me at the end "make had returned bad status, install seems impossible". Possibly related: I can't find a Makefile.pl on my system. How can I fix this? Would be grateful for any help. The last part of the Cpan output is below. Thanks, Ako ------------------------ Writing Makefile for HTML::Tagset -- NOT OK Running make test Can't test without successful make Running make install make had returned bad status, install seems impossible Running make for G/GA/GAAS/libwww-perl-5.807.tar.gz Is already unwrapped into directory /Users/Ako/.cpan/build/libwww-perl-5.807 CPAN.pm: Going to build G/GA/GAAS/libwww-perl-5.807.tar.gz -- NOT OK Running make test Can't test without successful make Running make install make had returned bad status, install seems impossible _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.

ppp source

site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com Delivered-To: darwin-dev(a)lists.apple.com Hi all, Thanks. -Mike _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored. Darwin-dev mailing list (Darwin-dev(a)lists.apple.com) Help/Unsubscribe/Update your Subscription: http://lists.apple.com/mailman/options/darwin-dev/site_archiver%40lists.app… I think I found a bug in the pptp kernel extension. I downloaded the source for the ppp package from opensource.apple.com for 10.4.9, but I'm having a hard time compiling a new PPTP NKE. I've never built any of these packages from scratch and could use some help. I tried building the PPTP NKE target and got a slew of errors regarding missing headers. Someone from another list told me that the missing header are private and that I need to get them from the XNU kernel project. I've got that now, but when I include those headers in my search path I still have problems with missing #defs and such. Any pointers or suggestions?

This list isn't really the place to get help with that web site... I contacted opensource(a)apple.com several months ago about those missing files and received no response. I was actually going to post on here asking if anybody knew what the status was until I'd caught up on my mail and saw the original post. At present, building a complete Darwin 8.9 (in fact, the past few minor releases of Darwin 8) is impossible—does anybody know what the status is? I'm reluctant to file a bug report (I'm not sure Radar's supposed to be used to report web-site bugs, is it?) but with no response and no action after several months, I can't speak for anybody else but I'm at a bit of a loss insofar as how to proceed.

Yes. I've noticed a couple of drivers that use an array instead of a dictionary to specify matching criteria. From the criteria, it's clearly an OR situation. For example in IOStorageFamily.kext the IOApplePartitionScheme IOPropertyMatch is an array instead of a dictionary. I assumed :-) that one could use the same technique with general matching criteria. ...Duane _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.

I figured it would be more efficient to use a single OR matching Notification. Realistically speaking, given that services don't tend to come and go terribly often, this shouldn't be an issue. Also, I believe you can use OR in a kext by replacing the dictionary with an array, but i guess that only works for kext. I was hoping there was an equivalent method available. I actually went back through the I/O Kit matching code before replying the second time around (yes, I should have the first time 8), and I don't recall seeing anything like this at the lower level. Are you referring to matching as specified in a kext plist? This email sent to site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com
