Tell me what you think! that seems to me more clear and more consistent with event.dest and probably some other stuff... also it looks more pythonic i would say... even set_data() is easy to use too.. i use a lot ipython interactive shell so attributes are shown as result of auto completion + if you would put """documentation strings""" it will also come out with basic documentation of what is it for and how to use it... > Well, that's what asoundlib says... weird, don't you think? i was pissed but as usually being the lamest in programming i had no one but myself to blame ;) > Remember: python is far away of real-time so if you get weirds timings > you may reconsider using a queue anyway! my pyalsa piece of code is part of handling gamepad events in pyqt4 loop so i thought to send events as soon as i get them from /dev/input/js0 should be handled without any queue and trying to send them directly.. am i right in this particular set up? i'll try to get into queues in the later phase of my development... _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
