CodeforEvolution e2c7bb900c Add Reboot Check to BPackageRoster A bit of an explanation for these weirdly named functions: LatestActivePackageInfos() returns the packages on the system that are both installed and fully set up. When packages are in the middle of being installed, LatestInactivePackageInfos() shows the packages in the process of being installed. Once the installation process is done, LatestInactivePackageInfos() returns nothing. If there are packages that can't be fully activated without a reboot, CurrentlyActivePackageInfos() will return the same information as LatestActivePackageInfos(), or if everything has been installed and activated, it will return no packages.

Haiku

Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs

Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.

Goals

Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
Clean, clear, concise code.
Unified desktop environment.

Trying Haiku

Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.

Compiling Haiku

See ReadMe.Compiling.
