Forum Topic - Overview of the resource database (rsrcdbmgr): (2 Items)
   
Overview of the resource database (rsrcdbmgr)  
The Neutrino Library Reference has entries for the rsrcdbmgr_* functions (I just added the name business, including 
rsrcdbmgr_query_name()), but our docs don't have an overview of the resource database. There are some notes (written, I 
think, by Thomas Fletcher)  in svn that look like a good starting point. Where would be the best place for the overview?
 Building Embedded Systems? Programmer's Guide? Somewhere else?

Thanks for any suggestions.

I'd at least make a mention of the functions in the writing resource manager
chapter since the functions are also used to serve out major/minor device
numbers and can be used to provide some exclusive access for managers that
want to be able to check to run only a single instance (not perfect, but a
workable solution).
