************************************************ *** This file is a TODO. It is thus kinda *** *** outdated. You know the story, right? *** ************************************************ ### ### Urgent stuff: ### * Have a proper todo file ### ### Ongoing stuff ### * Switch to tesh.pl, and kill the now unused parts of xbt that seem fragile * Clean up CMake files (may need a full rewrite). Non exhaustive list of subgoals: - Use genuine cmake mechanisms and variables when available, instead of reinventing the wheel. - Correctly determine system and architecture (e.g. x32). - Correctly determine compiler type and version (e.g. clang). - Correctly set compiler flags according to compiler type and version. - Correctly set compiler flags for C++, Java, and Fortran compilers too. - Use git to generate the dist archive. Either use git-archive to generate the tarball, or keep using cmake -E tar, but use git-ls-files to get the list of files to pack. * Document host module * /* FIXME: better place? */ int vasprintf (char **ptr, const char *fmt, va_list ap); char *bprintf(const char*fmt, ...) _XBT_GNUC_PRINTF(1,2); ### ### Planned ### * * XBT ***** [errors/exception] * Better split casual errors from programming errors. The first ones should be reported to the user, the second should kill the program (or, yet better, only the msg handler) * Allows the use of an error handler depending on the current module (ie, the same philosophy as log4c using GSL's error functions) [logs] * Hijack message from a given category to another for a while (to mask initializations, and more) * Allow each actor to have its own setting * more logging appenders (take those from Ralf in l2) [modules] * Add configuration and dependencies to our module definition [other modules] * we may need a round-robin database module, and a statistical one * Some of the datacontainer modules seem to overlap. Kill some of them? - replace fifo with dynars - replace set with SWAG
