nm_device_get_state called from 2 different applications for the same device does not report that same status

[david feeney <dpfeeney gmail com>]

Hello,

I have two nm_client applications  running simultaneously: 1) nm_applet, and 2) my_app.

Initially both programs agree on the state of the wifi device i.e. nm_device_get_state (device):

1 )

nm-applet: W: notify_active_ap_changed_cb Device State = 100
nm-applet: W: Device Product = BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY
nm-applet: W: Device Vendor = Broadcom Corporation

2) 

my_app[30408]: Q: show_wifi_device_info Device State = 100
my_app[30408]: Q: Device Product = BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY
my_app[30408]: Q: Device Vendor = Broadcom Corporation


Then I Disconnect the device, from either application and my_app cannot obtain the new State:

1) 
nm-applet: W: notify_active_ap_changed_cb Device State = 30
nm-applet: W: Device Product = BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY
nm-applet: W: Device Vendor = Broadcom Corporation

2)
my_app[30408]: Q: show_wifi_device_info Device State = 100
my_app[30408]: Q: Device Product = BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY
my_app[30408]: Q: Device Vendor = Broadcom Corporation

I am polling the nm_device_get_state (device) to get updated status; will this not work?

Thank you again!
