****** * Since LARTC is not an announcement list I will not be posting * all release announcements here. LQL has been through several * releases since the initial announcement and LQL-Sharp is * something completely new which will hopefully be of interest to * many of the people subscribed to LARTC. ****** That's right! Yes, yes, yes. You can now control the QoS features of the Linux kernel from a high level language. LQL-Sharp provides a Mono (C#) binding to all of the methods in the LQL library. To show just how easy LQL-Sharp makes manipulating the Linux QoS features I threw together a small demo GUI application last night. Check it out. http://www.coverfire.com/archives/2005/02/04/lql-htb-widget/ What's that? You don't like C#? Well you can use LQL-Sharp with any language supported by Mono. I don't like Mono you say? Well that's OK too. All QoS elements in LQL are implemented as GObjects [1]. This means it is easy to create language bindings to just about any language you like. Native Python bindings should not take more than a couple of days. I would be happy to offer help to anyone wishing to pursue bindings to their favourite language. --------------------------- - LQL-Sharp 0.8.0 (http://www.coverfire.com/lql-sharp/) --------------------------- LQL-Sharp provides Mono (C#) bindings to the LQL library. 0.8.0: * First public release. * Supports all of the features in LQL 0.8.0. --------------------------- - LQL 0.8.0 (http://www.coverfire.com/lql/) --------------------------- The Linux QoS Library (LQL) provides a GPL licensed, GObject based C API to manipulate the network queueing disciplines, classes and classifiers in the Linux kernel. LQL does not use the TC command as a back-end. Instead, LQL communicates with the Linux kernel via Netlink sockets the same way TC does. 0.8.0: * API changes to accommodate the Mono (C#) bindings. * Make "mark" a proper property of LQLClassifierFWMark. * Documentation for the TCIndex methods.
