[PATCH 2/2] Implement shadow directory support for device classes.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Modify the device class code so that normal manipulations work
in the presence of shadow directories.  Some of the shadow directory
support still needs to be implemented in the implementation of the
class but these modifications are sufficient to make that simple.
