Hi,

i explore the UI of octopus and i try to understand how omero notifies the viewers for events. It is apparent from the documentation that the viewers "read" events from the ui/olive file. However, when i cat that file from the shell and "play" with a terminal a bit, i get no data. The terminals are updated correctly which indicates that the events are delivered. I checked the source of olive (port/live/live.b) and it simply reads (by calling updateproc(fd)) the file as expected.

Obviously i am missing something important that the documentation does not cover.
How can i read events posted by omero?

Thanks
