Re: [Info-xnee] Xnee and cygwin (+synchronisation)

[Serg Belokamen]

Hi All,

Soon after I sent the email I got Xnee working on Cygwin. GUI (gnee) 
client has more issues then I have time to list (on Cygwin anyway) 
however CLI applications work as expected which is great.

So now for the next question, synchronisation.

Lets say I have a recorded a session:

xterm
<NEW WINDOW>
ping -n 5 HOST
ls -al

Now lets assume that ping 1 and 2 were okay, but pings 3, 4 and 5 start 
to timeout and thus take longer then time set in the recorded session. 
This will cause "ls" to run prematurely and then continue with "pings". 
Essentially a race condition between 2 apps., so in reality 
synchronisation is lost.

Is there a way to monitor those events. For example, take an alternative 
course of action if instead of expected "data input" we get an error 
dialog or anything else that is not expected.

  Thanks,
     Serg
