Consistently use "is" or "is not" to compare variables to None,
because doing so is preferrable, as per PEP 8
(http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#programming-recommendations):
> Comparisons to singletons like None should always be done with is or
> is not, never the equality operators.
A while back I wrote the attached code to demonstrate how to use
events and serial console to create a serial console that stays up
even when the VM is down. It might need some work, as I am not
terribly strong with Python.
* examples/python/consolecallback.py: New file.
* examples/python/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Ship it.
I went with the shorter license notice used by src/libvirt.c,
rather than spelling out the full LGPLv2+ clause into each of
these files.
* configure.ac: Declare copyright.
* all Makefile.am: Likewise.
The dominfo.py example script has a bogus check for /proc/xen
existing. The default connection cannot be assumed to be Xen
any more
* examples/python/dominfo.py: Remove check for Xen
This is more flexible regarding the location of the python binary
but doesn't allow to pass the -u flag. The -i flag can be passed
from inside the script using the PYTHONINSPECT env variable.
This fixes a problem with the esx_vi_generator.py on FreeBSD.
It also demonstrates how to use the libvirt.openAuth() method.
* examples/python/Makefile.am: add esxlist.py to EXTRA_DIST
* examples/python/README: add some notes about esxlist.py
* examples/python/esxlist.py: the new example
* Makefile.am: Add examples/dominfo examples/domsuspend examples/python
as SUBDIRS
* configure.in: Update AC_OUTPUT for new/old Makefiles
* docs/Makefile.am: Remove examples from SUBDIRS
* docs/examples/info1.c: Move to examples/dominfo/info1.c
* docs/examples/suspend.c: Move to examples/domsuspend/suspend.c
* docs/examples: Remove all remaining files
* docs/examples/python: Moved to examples/python/
* examples/dominfo/Makefile.am, examples/domsuspend/Makefile.am: New
build files
* libvirt.spec.in: Update to take account of moved examples
