Package smartcard :: Module CardMonitoring :: Class CardMonitor

Class CardMonitor

Class that monitors smart card insertion/removal. and notify observers

note: a card monitoring thread will be running as long as the card monitor has observers, or CardMonitor.stop() is called. Do not forget to delete all your observers by calling deleteObserver, or your program will run forever...

Uses the singleton pattern from Thinking in Python Bruce Eckel, http://mindview.net/Books/TIPython to make sure there is only one CardMonitor.
