I was able to take care of it with the C++ library. Thank you so much for your help. Has anyone considered changed the C API to work with keys are {char buf, length}? If the python API every gets omap support then you have 2/3 APIs which are sort of incomplete. Another way might be to base64 encode the keys of rbd_children or whenever nulls are needed. Either way, thanks again! Matt _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
