27e0d6f8 MS |
19 | The CUPS notifier interface provides a standard method for adding support for new event notification methods to CUPS. |
20 | Each notifier delivers one or more IPP events from the standard input to the specified recipient. | |

22 | Notifiers \fBMUST\fR read IPP messages from the standard input using the |
23 | .BR ippNew () | |
24 | and | |
25 | .BR ippReadFile () | |
26 | functions and exit on error. | |
27 | Notifiers are encouraged to exit after a suitable period of inactivity, however they may exit after reading the first message or stay running until an error is seen. | |
28 | Notifiers inherit the environment and can use the logging mechanism documented in | |
29 | .BR filter (7). | |
