By default, all loaded modules +get a descriptor to the manager service (descriptor 1). + +Each service has a set of ressources that can get a descriptor by openning them. These ressources +are identified by a string, such as : +kbd:readtext +file:root/System/ +console:myuser/main + +To open these objects, a process would call the open() method on the manager object. The manager would +then call the open() method on the corresponding process with the string after the first semicolon +(for example: open("file:root/System") would call file.open("root/System")). + +If the string is just a service name (like open("kbd")), the manager would return a descriptor to the +root object for that service. + +The manager is also the one that handle log entries for services, for the moment by printing them on the screen. |
