I have an application that will be spread out across potentially
hundreds
of different locations. I need to manage custom hardware/servers etc.
and
I think eDirectory would fit the bill perfectly.
I'd like to start developing my own objects, methods, properties, etc
with
eDirectory. I've found
developer.novell.com but it seems 'dead'. I'm
quite new with C/C++ but do have a pretty good background with other
languages. I have Borland C++ Builder 6 Personal, MS Visual Studio
2006
and open source (ie: linux) compilers at my disposal.
Problem is: I can't compile even one of the demo programs.
How do I get started? I'm not looking to be able to create complex
objects
(yet) but I would like to be able to monitor for eDir changes (ie:
events
like printer jams, out of paper) and then "do" something for each
event.
