So I am starting to look through the code for Tracker and I see some
entry points using Pose, PoseView, Model and others that would allow
me to make Tracker display mini renders of images for the icons of
images rather than a uniform icon that doesn't help much. Even if
there is no interest in seeing this in the trunk or mainline, my
question is:
After I build Tracker, how can I test it locally since I am building
from within Haiku?
It seems like, in theory, that I should be able to kill the tracker
process, swap out the binaries and restart it. Is it that simple? Does
anybody have any better recommendations? Is it even possible to kill
tracker and continue operating? Advice here would be helpful.
Thanks,
Gabriel
Nope, you got it!
Swap the binaries, kill the current Tracker and restart it (maybe use
'hey Tracker quit' from Terminal...).
P.S. I implemented real image icons once upon a time, it is late now,
but I'll dig and see if I have the old code (VERY old) - more than
willing to share! ;-)
