18:51 < jtanx> hm, so to get clock_gettime to work, you need to use std=gnu99 instead of std=c99
18:52 < jtanx> do you think we should just stick with gettimeofday?

+16:05 < jtanx> I was just thinking, what sort of identification information is needed from the server?
+16:05 < jtanx> The gui should have some understanding of what sort of sensors/actuators it needs to display
+16:10 < jtanx> it might be enough to say this is API version x
+16:10 < jtanx> and at version x, it's agreed that these id values correspond to these sensors/actuators etc?
+16:19 < jtanx> anyway, what I've done for now is if asked, the api will list the sensor/actuator ids and the corresponding human readable string
+16:19 < jtanx> api/?sensors&actuators
+18:06 < jtanx> also, what do you think of keeping track of the number of points stored
+18:07 < jtanx> then you can allow the user to request from where they want to retrieve data from and how many to retrieve
+18:08 < jtanx> the only problem is that it wouldn't be time based, but based on the number of data points recorded
+18:08 < jtanx> this method is simpler because you now the offset to use with fseek
+18:08 < jtanx> if it's time based you have to search the data for the correct point
+19:51 < sam_moore> All the above makes good sense
+19:52 < sam_moore> If we can make a working "request X number of points" first instead of "request from time T onwards", we might be able to convert the latter to the former if necessary
+20:04 < jtanx> ok I just submitted a pull request for some stuff
+20:04 < jtanx> mostly the identification stuff and some reordering
+20:04 < jtanx> FCGI_RejectJSON now requires that you give a description explaining why
+20:05 < jtanx> when RejectJSOn is called, it's always logged along with the description, so some of the current log messages within the handler functions may be redundant
