ChangeLog for SimGrid-java, before its integration into the main source tree. SimGrid-java (3.9) stable; urgency=low -- 2013-01-30 Da SimGrid team SimGrid-java (3.8.1) stable; urgency=low * New module: org.simgrid.trace.Trace (SimGrid trace bindings) Warning: all methods are visible, but only some of them are implemented so far. Check the source (src/jtrace.c) for further information. * New module: org.simgrid.msg.File (SimGrid File management functions) * New Module: org.simgrid.msg.VM (SimGrid interface to mimick IAAS clouds) * Change the meaning of Process.restart: now restart the process from the begining, like MSG_process_restart in C. * Add Process.setAutoRestart: handling of process restart when failed host comes back. * Add Process.getProperty, Host.getProperty, Host.getProperty: allows you to retrieve the properties of the processes/hosts * Deprecate Msg.clean(): you can just forget about it now. * New function Process.getCount(), that only works when compiling with the not yet released version 3.9 of the C library. * New context factory based on Coroutines. It mandates a modified JVM but then, the simulations run about five times faster, and there is no limit to the amount of processes (beside of the available memory). -- 2012-12-04 Da SimGrid team SimGrid-java (3.7.1) stable; urgency=low The "Java aint got to be bloated and slow" release Major cleanups: * Various internal cleanups and performance improvement Simulations are expected to run up to twice faster or so * Make Process.kill(process) an instance method, not a static one * User processes are not java.lang.Thread subclasses. This breaks the compatibility (sorry), but previous API was brain-dead, making it impossible to have non-trivial initializations in the process constructor. * Require a full constructor per Process sub-class. Kinda breaks the compatibility (sorry), but this allows a much more efficient way to launch the processes at simulation startup. * Do not embeed our version of semaphores, java 1.5 can be considered as sufficiently prevalent for us to not dupplicate its features. * Lot of bug fixes Extend the API: * Add examples for almost every part of the API We spotted and fixed a lot of bugs in the process * New module: asynchronous communication API * New function: Process.sleep() It takes milliseconds as argument, just as java.lang.Thread.sleep() * New module: org.simgrid.msg.Mutex (SimGrid mutexes) * New module: org.simgrid.msg.RngStream (RngStreams random generators) -- 2012-06-12 Da SimGrid team SimGrid-java (1.0 (3.6) unstable; urgency=low * Initial release. * Split of every thing from simgrid v3.5 into a separate package. -- 2011-10-05 Da SimGrid team
