So, I'm in the middle of understanding how the icecast.xml file is parsed,
and how the settings for a specific mount point are read.
In cfgfile.c - _parse_mount() I've added the following lines:
} else if (xmlStrcmp (node->name, XMLSTR("playlist-notify-uri")) ==
0) {
mount->playlist_notify_uri = (char *)xmlNodeListGetString (doc,
node->xmlChildrenNode, 1);
}
My goal is to include the URI in my logging.c file, and get the value of the
field:
<mount>
<playlist-notify-uri>http://test.com/icecast/notify</playlist-notify-uri>
</mount>
Basically, I'm having Icecast POST to a certain URI whenever it detects a
change in metadata. (Which I've already implemented, but now, I need to add
a setting in the config file for storing this URI.) What is the best
practice for doing this? I'm looking to access it in logging.c,
logging_playlist() - where I have a string that represents the mount point.
I guess the question is... How should I go about selecting the value for
this field on the specific mountpoint?
Ideas, suggestions, tips, general advice, or tricks welcome.

Looking at the stats page could mean missed metadata and wouldn't reflect exactly when it happened. Geoff.
